Mine can. Speed setting is expensive (lots of test shots), and is different for
ambient and flash. Back is an NPC with a fresnel lens and enlarging tube.
Experimental back using Izone film also works on auto with more consistent
results between flash and ambient.
BTW this is a real good reason for not holding out for a digital drop in
solution for OM. It is one thing to build a receptor. Quite another to give it
the same reflection characteristics as film.
