I'm getting a consistent arc, with the 5.6 & 8 shots being the most
exposed and the 2.8 & 16 shots being darkest.
Bob. Buy a hand held incident light meter, use the camera on manual,
and stop worrying about it.
Alternatively, have you tried to see if the camera works okay with a
Canon lens? Maybe the 20D auto-exposure circuit is inherently flaky
with non-Canon optics?
