I think we'll have to wait until somebody here has actually tried the Samsung camera before assuming too much about the supposed differences. I think it's quite possible that the same 'green button' trick (with the AE-L button, I believe, on the DS) could still work. The normal operation of the DS could be described as not stopping down the lenses during metering; maybe there's just a simple misunderstanding here.
