Hi,
Just received a Pen f 38mm lens with adapter. The size is great! I will be comparing it to my hexanon 40mm. At wide open, it looks like the center contrast/sharpness is better than the Hexanon, but at the edges, the Hexanon is sharper.
Wondering if the lens really requires pushing the preview button to get it to stop down to the aperture ring setting? Am I missing something?
I hope there is some way to resolve this without harming the lens. For example, perhaps there is an easy way to hold the aperture lever so that the preview button is not necessary (ie, just use the aperture ring, as with the hexanon and other lenses.). Tape is an option, but neither reliable - nor 'elegant'.
Thanks for any help!
Best,
Tom
