We are not talking about bottom line film Bodies but most DID show over/under exposure. Secondly the stop down method is flawed in That it sucks away meter sensitivity, takes More time, and needs to be done over and over Again everytime the lighting changes, the aperture Setting changes, the varible aperture zoom zoom Setting changes, and the macro magnification changes. All of that is continuously fully automatic with the cam sensor Implementation which is missing on the DSLR with K/M lenses. jco

Push the GB and the lens and camera communicate, the aperture is recorded and exposure info is calculated, shutter speed is adjusted. The camera and lens just communicate differently. Plus, by activating the DOF button, the camera provides a read out in the viewfinder of how much over/under the exposure is. That's more than some film bodies delivered.
