Chuck, I'm assuming "the necessary stop-down pin" refers to the need
to do stop down metering when using OM lenses on an EOS body. And
that it's inconvenient to have to do so by finger - correct?
That being the case, I assume normal workflow is:
1. Focus/compose at full aperture;
2. Set desired aperture;
3. Push pin to stop down;
4. Meter manually - or does AV provide correct shutter speed as well?
5. Press shutter and make OM magic!
6. Push pin again to return to full aperture.
TIA!/ScottGee1
