Jeffrey, check out this page:

You can get an idea where the MX-EVS fits into the 3.5 series.
As you'll see, the MX-EVS was one step before the 3.5E, not like a "T" at
all. No plastic parts.
I like the EVS engaged when the light isn't changing, but I'm glad I can
disengage it in rapidly changing light.
