Subject: [OM] Re: More on 35~105 variable aperture...
In a genuinely unscientific and amateurish experiment, I just put my 35-105
on an OM-4 and stepped outside. With the aperture set to f/11 and the lens
pointed at a uniformly sunlit wall, zooming from 35mm to 105mm resulted in a
two segment change in the LED meter reading.
Looks like it's not a constant aperture lens. I never really cared. Even
though I've got the 35-80/2.8 Zuiko and a 28-105/2.8 Tamron, I often still
use the 35-105. It's a really nice lens, whatever the aperture may actually
be at 67mm.
