Originally posted by boriscleto I shoot TAv mode almost exclusively now, as far as I'm concerned the camera does a better job of setting the ISO than I would.
With a decrippled mount you could shoot in TAv mode and have your camera set up so that A is controlled from the aperture ring and then T and EV comp are controlled from the e-dials. I would LOVE to be able to shoot like that!
With a decrippled mount and a FF sensor, my FA Limiteds would finally fully come to life! Now if they only had quick-shift focusing.
I'm one of those guys that wishes all lenses still had the aperture ring. I like the mechanical feel of them. I really like the idea of being able to control all three exposure variables without any fiddling. It's a damn nuisance having to use the ISO button all the time in M mode. My sympathies to those who have to stop-down meter to use their old lenses. I also like that the aperture ring allows for better inspection of the lens since you can lock the aperture all the way open when it's off the camera, and you can see how the blades are doing at each f stop.
