Actualy no, there are certain models of Super-Multi-coated Takumars that do NOT feature open aperture metering Capability, The 85mm F1.9 SMCT is at least one, and I think The 85-210 f4.5 zoom is also like that if I recall correctly. jco

The rubber ring versions aren't superior. To my mind, the metal rings are much nicer.
