You can change the green button function to act like Sv, Tv or Av on demand.
In Manual Mode, pressing the Green Button gives you a correct exposure BUT it chooses a weird shutter/aperture combination which doesn't seem to relate to the Program Line. I have to press the Green Button, then AE-L so as to adjust the shutter/aperture values to suit my set up.
If only the K5s AE-L fuctioned correctly, then we wouldn't be forced to find work arounds!
I've moved across to TAv Mode as this is the only mode where the AE-L button works correctly - fortuneately, the K5s IQ isn't too compromised at high ISO values!
