Aperture priority or manual mode. Either one, same results. I also
went back and used my old adaptor w/o focus confirmation and the
results were the same. Just did another test using flash. The
flash exposures were all very consistant until I stopped down too
much for the flash to provide enough light. They then got dark. My
problem without the flash is overexposure as I stop down. The meter
in either aperture priority or manual is overcompensating for the
stopped down lens and the more I stop it down the more it
overcompensates with the shutter speed.
I am ready to return the camera. Does anyone know if the Olympus
4/3 cameras have this problem? Is there an focus confirmation for
the Olympus camera yet? I don't see one advertised.
Hi Aram!
Search the archives, of this list and/or the LUG or LEG. I'd do it
for you, but we are packing 4 grandkids for an early start, and I
have not the time. (Sorry!)
I recall that this is normal for the Canons, with non-Canon lenses
attached. Someone, somewhere, posted a note from Canon about this,
though I cannot recall the details. Something to do with a problem
which was easier for Canon to solve, electronically, but which causes
the problem with non-Canon lenses.
Doesn't bother me (or most of us) as we shoot at or near full aperture.
Perhaps this post will trigger others to remember the details I cannot.
But, I'm pretty sure your camera is not broken.
Cheers!
