[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 228548, member: 12496"] These are four very different situations. But only two for the SB-700 which only does TTL BL (unless in Spot Metering mode). Saying, Nikon's is a TTL BL system, and SB-700 has no override menu. I am confused by what you did not report. You mentioned a few situations, but specified no results? Always same results? You say both cameras and all flash models do this? The SB-700 only does TTL BL, the others have a menu to select mode. Since you imply all cameras and all flash models do this, then ... Are all of your cases exactly the same scene? Like camera on a tripod, and totally unmoved from one shot to the next? To be exactly the same scene? And all same metering mode? Because, TTL metering depends on what the meter sees. White scenes (white walls, etc) tend to underexpose. Dark colored scenes (black backgrounds, etc) tend to overexpose. Just [URL="http://www.scantips.com/lights/metering.html"]How Light Meters Work[/URL] Can you post two which shows this difference? [/QUOTE]
