The release mentions HyperManual mode, but doesn't specify aperture priority. If I stop an M or K lens down and press the green button, will this give a correct shutter speed in both manual and aperture priority modes? If it works for aperture priority, will the shutter speed vary with the light, or do I need to press the green button each time I want to meter the scene?
