Thanks ... it's not that big a deal that I'll want to get another camera for this little project. I suspect that you're correct wrt the difference in exposure between the two methods. Believed that all along, but since the gist of the project is to compare two lenses with the same optical formula, one of which only works with stop down metering, it seemed like it might be fun to compare metering methods, too.
