I've used a few dozen MF lenses on my E-500 and a few on the E-510 and I
have yet to see this problem. I did, and still continue to see a discrepancy
between the in-camera metering and my hand-held meters (GE PR-1 and Gossen
Lina-Six). Generally, if I use the in-camera meter I put my thumb over the
eyepiece and set the exposure to two bars to the right of centre.
