Limiting only in the sense that the lens accepts just
the light reflected directly from the framed image. Any
other (peripherial) light would potentially flare or other-
wise diminish the effect of "what you want" to reach the
film - the reflections from the framed image.

Metering issues remain as always - an attempt to expose
at 18% grey or whatever. Each metering method has a means
for the photographer to compensate according to his/her
intentions depending upon distribution of tonal values in
the framed image - backlighting, amount of bright sky, etc.
