How to avoid blown highlights?
Negative EV Comp is probably the quickest and easiest solution. The more correct way would be to properly meter - one thing to remember is that ALL automated metering on ALL digital slr's/cameras suck, period! As others have noted, "Hyper Manual (M Mode)" is probably best to work with, "GRN button" the exposure and dial up shutter speed [snap] dial up shutter speed again [snap] - this will give you 2 shots underexposed different stops to work with and should save your highlights.
My personal preference is to use "Spot Metering" with "A/E Lock" - you can give that a shot also but it can get a bit tricky...
