woof!
The testers probably picked up on Pentax's usual slight underexposure setting. I wouldn't bother with the +0.5 unless I were disappointed with the results. What I was complaining about was the testing bias towards a camera that did not consistently meter at the same point because it averaged out to correct. That reminds me of the old statistician joke - a statistician with one foot in a bucket of ice water and the other in a bucket of boiling water would, on average, be comfortable.
