: No. You misread what Hans wrote. Hans actually wrote that you take a light

He did not misread it. When you pull the memo lever (w/o spot metering!) nothing
is stored untill you actually  take the picture. The LV from this OTF reading is
stored and used for all next pictures. When you pull the lever with spot
readings, the LV value is stored immediatedly.
