Nope, never changed my story. You just misquoted me. I did provide further details as to why I did it. And they are consistent. Forst I said I did it most of the time with my M42 bodies. Then I explained why (quicker, shows exactly what is in focus), then I reiterated it a number of times because you're too moronic to actually read what I wrote, and expanded it to note that I also did it with my M645 when I was out shooting with it (a camera which I'd actually purchased between the initial post on the subject and my later posts).
