Hows the 77mm. Do you feel it has lived up to expectations?

I managed to borrow one. I loved it.

I happily use my 50mm 1.7 from my me-super on my istD along with other manual lens. No problem at all. on the istD mount the lens set your apeture, press the green button behind the shutter release button, cam closes down lens takes a reading set shutter speed accordingly, compose and fire. Just becomes an operational thing takes next to no time at all.

can you give us some more info to go on.
What settings, iso, green auto, p, av. tv, m. Metering setting spot centre matrix. Lens was is set to `A` position. Take it compensation = 0
Can you cross ref the metering result the cam gives with either a seperate handheld meter or other cam?

Not the most favourable and also contains an inacuracy. States that of the 6 digital SLR`s test only the canon and fuji come with PC flash sockets. I have E-mailed them to inform them.
The pessimist in me says I might get an e mail aknowledgement at best.
The optermist in me says published correction.
