Do think about it some... You need open aperture only for critical focusing. Once you get the focus, close it down for metering. It's true that the long lenses lose a lot of light, and that makes some metering systems hard to see properly, but at least you don't have to focus stopped down!
It is a shame to lose open aperture metering, I'll agree, but sometimes it's a less expensive way to go. keith whaley Kudzu wrote: > > >> You lose open aperture metering however.<< > > That tells me all I needed to know.
