My first Pentax was an ME-super back in college and that was pretty primitive compared to today's cameras, but still way ahead of its predecessors. No AF, no automatic aperture setting, no TTL flash, no super duper metering, no mirror lockup, no DOF preview, no automatic ISO setting. So having to meter with any old glass on the *istD is not going to be the best scenario, but I'll live with it, compared to not having a digital slr at all. I just hope that someday digital will look as good as my chrome slides do today.

So make it consistent. Take a meter reading *every* time. It will probably make a good habit. :)
But it's still changing the way I work. A need aperture control via the aperture ring with metering through the lens, quite a simple need wouldn't you think?
Granted I use a meter exclusively when shooting MF but hey we were talking toy format. :-)
