<p>Michael the aperture ring is coupled to the meter but in stop down mode and you use the notch at the bottom of the F F scale on the right through the viewfinder. Canon says first focus on subject then apply stop down lever and adjust aperture/ shutter speed to the desired setting and the needle sits in the notch on the F scale . </p>

<p>Their is a notch at the bottom of the F scale (through the viewer) that if you go into stop down and take the f stop ring off A and get the needle in the notch it corresponds to what you get to the reading when set to A ( a lot simpler if you do it lol) </p>

<p>Hi i recently purchased a Canon EF (fantastic camera ) i have been using it in A mode and all the pics are well exposed with no problems . I would like to use it in manual mode is this only possible in stop down mode with a FD lens in place and using the notch at the bottom of the Fscale in the finder ,Thanks </p>
