[QUOTE="hark, post: 282271, member: 13196"] jrleo33, first--please consider going back to post 19 (or thereabout) to edit something you wrote. In your initial post, you mentioned having problems with underexposure then around reply 19 you said it was overexposure. Okay...now to the nitty-gritty. ::what:: I don't know if this info will help or not, but I looked through the digital owner's manual for the D600. If you have the manual, please turn to page 226 where it discusses fine-tuning the metering. For your convenience, here is the PDF. If you are going by the PDF page numbering, you will want page 252 (which is page 226 of the owner's manual). I will also attach a print screen--I hope it will be large enough for you to read. According to this info, there is a custom settings menu where you can override the default settings for matrix, center-weighted, and spot metering. You might want to check and see if the matrix metering setting has been changed. If not, you might want to consider changing it to accommodate for the underexposure problem. Supposedly the 2 button reset will not affect whatever is programmed in there (so says the manual). To quickly access that part of the custom menu, it is b5.
