In every situation? OVF vs Live View metering uses different sensors, and the OVF metering sits behind the focusing screen, if I remember correctly. It's less accurate than the direct sensor measurement, so far as I'm aware...

A sure-fire test, Joyce, would be to take a shot indoors in a room with the curtains closed and the lights on, with the camera on a tripod so that it's fixed on the same point. That way, you can keep the lighting and metering constant - and you'll know for sure if there's a difference in metering between the two modes :)

Was the camera mounted on a tripod, and do you know for sure that the lighting remained absolutely constant? Just a slight movement of the camera between the two shots could result in the metering reading from different areas of the scene, and a very slight change in light (the slightest wisp of a cloud passing over the sun, for example) could be more than enough to account for the difference in shutter speed...
