Originally posted by kh1234567890 With slowish lenses (>f4) I usually dial in +1/3 or +2/3 EV exposure compensation. This gives me the same exposure as LV metering would. I also always shoot raw, use the highlight correction and prefer to err on the under-exposure side. With fast lenses (<f2.8) the exposure tends to be spot on.
Thank you. I appreciate that. Just to be sure, this is with the K-5 correct?
Anybody have a different experience (especially with a K-30)?
I am thinking a Canon ee-S screen will be a gift to myself later this year. I am comfortable as to the improvement when focusing with a fast manual lens, and believe there is a minimal impact with my relatively slower AF lenses (my DA 18-135 and F 35-70 are still my most used lenses), but not yet comfortable with what might happen to exposure metering. I don't want to spend this much on an unhappy experiment.
