note that with the green button, if you normally use exposure compensation you

My experience with everything but the K-5 is that no matter what lens I use I
have to chimp the histogram and tweak the exposure on 80-90% of the shots.
it is my perhaps naive belief that practice can improve my second-guessing of
the exposure on my K200d; for my most-used lenses, and for most scenes in
normal daylight and bright overcast, +0.7 is quite reliable and i don't have to
chimp; even with M lenses i can green-button and then dial the shutter two
clicks slower (still a pain), occasionally checking the histogram; and i'm
slowly getting better at perceiving when the compensation should be different,
in other words, knowing when to chimp
