I find it interesting that basically the same question came up twice, appearently independantly, on this group within a couple of days.
I apologize to this group for the incompleteness of my reply to the tread "Tamron adaptall overexposures." What I should have said was that I got overexposures with both my PZ-1 and Pz-1p cameras set to Hyperprogram mode and multipattern metering with A lenses set to A. In my previous post I referred to A lenses and cameras on hyper program mode but omitted the multipattern metering part. Most of what else I said is still accurate, at least to me. To summarize with corrections: 1) Overexposure, when it occurred, did so on PZ-1 & PZ-1p bodies set to Hyper program mode and on Multi-pattern metering with A lenses set to A 2) Not everyone experienced the problem and it did not seem to occur with all A lenses 3) Switching the metering to center weight seems to allow for "correct" exposures I noticed when reviewing some of my old hard copy that overexposure was not problem if the camera was set to aperture priority. BTW - I found hard copy of related treads on this subject from Sept. 1996, Aug. 1997, Jul. 1998 treads. Again, I apoligize for the incompleteness of my previous post.
