   I'm curious??? How? The TTL flash in R5, R6/6.2, and R7 is OTF. The mirror
   is up, shutter open, then the silicon photo diode reads the light reflected
   from the film. Light coming into the eyepiece makes no difference. It's
   blocked out by the mirror.

Uh, forget my last message.  Temporary brain cramp.
