Using wider apertures without an ND filter? I thought it was the same with
all digitals, not designed to be used at less than their recommended ASA

I used it one day with my borrowed/lent 50mm 'cron until my lenses (+46mm x8
NDs) were in stock but never since then

opinion over mine. I wonder though why they'd put in a pull setting? What's
it for?
