Originally posted by nostatic For those shooting with the K7, are you finding you need exposure compensation? I'm finding that with FA ltd lenses 0ev is pretty hot. There is a significant difference when switching to -0.3, then less so (although darker) down to -0.7. It looks to me like -0.7ev is about the same as 0ev on the K20d (all other things being equal.
Or am I just lacking sleep?
I'm finding that the K-7 is doing a more "technically accurate" exposure in terms of the histogram being filled from end to end; the K10D and K100D always stopped short of the maximum, which often made the shots look a bit underexposed.
I haven't had any over-exposed shots so far, I'm pretty confident the K-7 won't do that, but they certainly meter brighter (maybe a 1/3 f-stop) compared to the K100D.
The new 77-segment exposure metering is pretty awesome, every shot nicely exposed, I'm loving it
Has anyone tried out the Flash ? I used to set +0.5 to +1.0 E/V for P-TTL on the AF360, but I'm finding the K-7's P-TTL exposure is almost spot-on. I have to try out more shots before I'm sure.
