[Mesorah] another grammar question

[Michael Hamm]

Achad shahat.

Someone leining Ki Savo said (26:14) ''v'lo nasati mimenu lames", with
an Ashkenazi kamatz (not a patach) under the lamed of "lames" instead
of the proper sh'va.  I corrected him without thinking about it
(instinctively, you could say), and he went back, but after thinking
about it I think I was wrong: there was no change in meaning.  Which
is right: the correcting me or the new me?
