Hi Chuck,
I think you probably lucked out. My 5D will over expose a full stop
using a non-coupled lens like that at f8 and with evaluative
metering. So, you needed plus a stop or so to turn the snow white
instead of gray and the non-coupled lens gave it to you because of a
metering inaccuracy.
Whatcha think?
Later,
Johnny
PS The metering inaccuracy goes something like this - f2.8/+1/3
stop, f4/+1/3 stop, f5.6/+2/3 stop, f8-f11/+1 stop.
