[QUOTE="T-Man, post: 306222, member: 22038"] That is indeed weird, Kinte! I just checked my D800 and I have the same menu options selected as you, and the "under>MTR>over" bracketing sequence is working as it's supposed to for me. If you're in Aperture priority, your EV nominal value is set to "0", you're using matrix metering, and you have "under>MTR>over" selected in menu option e7, I can't think of anything that would cause the 3 stop shift you're seeing unless either your camera has faulty metering or you have a firmware bug. Are you certain you have the latest firmware update loaded? 480 brings up a good point in his post above... if you take a single shot at "0" EV, is it way over-exposed for what it should be at the ISO you're using? If so, then your camera isn't metering properly. If you're having these problems only when bracketing, then it sounds like a software issue to me. Either way, if you don't find a logical cause, then it needs to go back to Nikon. [/QUOTE]
