Mark,
I did the same experiment this AM. The PZ-1p will spot meter with a K lens (tried the
K24/2.8). The PZ-1 will not spot meter with a K lens. So I'd revise what I said to
this...
PZ-1: NO Spot metering with K and M lenses, you need A,F,FA
and NO matrix metering with K & M, only Center Weighted.
PZ-1p: Center Weighted OR Spot metering with K & M lenses
and NO matrix metering with K & M, only Center Weighted.
and Spot, Matrix, or Center Weighted with A, F & FA lens.
Thanks to you and Paal for pointing that feature out, I had missed it on the PZ-1p.
Regards, Bob S.
