[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 291356, member: 3903"] I would guess you were using the camera in manual mode? But did you notice the markings on your lens? It says 4.5-5.6, which means that when you use the longer focal length (probably from 100-200, the lens will not go below f 5.6. So, if you take a reading with the lens at 55mm, put it on manual and then zoom to 5.6 without changing your shutter speed, you will underexpose your shots. It's kind of hard to diagnose without further knowledge of your methodology... [/QUOTE]
