I find hitting the green button, as well as the stop-down metering
method, easier and quicker than adjusting shutter speed on my KR-5sv.
KNob twiddling is just not as quick.

In what way is it easier? The fact that those cameras don't have an
automatic shutter speed? Sorry but that analysis is just so much
sophistry,
but to follow that logic, or lack there of, why not compare that to
other cameras that were designed for those lenses like the K2 or the
ME, it what way is the green button/AE lock method superior?
I personally have noticed inconsistent metering results with a variety
of K/M lenses when using the green button method. The meter just
isn't as accurate or responsive as the level of light decreases,
that's just a fact of life. I don't have those problems when the
lenses are used on the MX and LX. The saving grace of the D is being
able to check the histogram when exposure is critical, but in many
situations it would be nice to be able to just trust the meter.
Unfortunately just due to the nature of the beast you can't.
