that is true, the meter in the finder is totally separate from the actual autoexposure system... different light cells, different circuits, everything but the battery. The finder display should give you a good indication of the speed you're going to get, but not necessarily: if lighting conditions change during the exposure, the AE system will automatically compensate for it, and if there's a problem in one of the 2 metering systems the other one will probably not be affected by it.
