Originally posted by cooltouch I agree, I kinda like the deep contrast in your photo too. Actually, I suspect that's correct exposure, at least as far as your LX knew. You've got the sun peeking through some of your flowers, which would have caused the LX to stop down to compensate for the bright light source.
Absolutely possible, but it's definitely been wild (a few times it's given me several seconds open shutter with a speeds shown between 1/125 or 1/60, bizzaro)... but yeah, in any case, it chose correctly for this one.

Originally posted by Swift1 With that bright direct sun in the frame, it makes sense that the camera would underexpose a fair bit.
That's basically the same scenario as this shot which my Contax G2 underexposed a lot.
True enough. That shot, BTW Colton... I've seen it a number of time now, coming across it on Flickr - I love it. And the strange thing is each time I see just the thumbnail or a smaller version I keep thinking it's a shot of mine. This one (every time it's fooled me for a moment.)
(This NOT film, incidentally FYI.... shot taken with Ricoh GR)
