[QUOTE="StephanAlberts, post: 300519, member: 17179"] [FONT=verdana]Hi, I am having a very strange problem with exposures on my Nikon D600 and I will try my best to explain. I am sort of a newbie in the DSLR world.... I have only used Manual focus lenses on this camera, 2 cine lenses from Rokinon (14mm & 35mm). It's been a steep learning curve as haven't actually used an autofocus lens yet. I mostly shoot in Aperture Priority mode, only adjusting the Aperture ring on the lens and setting ISO and WB. I am usually happy with the results. Sometimes I switch to Manual Mode and I use the exposure meter in the viewfinder to find the correct exposure, then tweak it a bit if I want more. But lately it's all gone wrong. In [B]Aperture Priority[/B], with ISO 100 and WB Auto, I set the aperture at [B]F1.4[/B], the shutter speed is set at [B]1/50s [/B]and it underexposes my photos. Turning the aperture all the way to [B]F22[/B], it sets the shutter speed for very long ([B]10 secs[/B]!) and obviously completely whites out my image. In [B]Manual Mode[/B] with the same values, with the aperture set at [B]F1.4[/B], I follow the exposure meter in the viewfinder which guides me to the same shutter speed settings i.e. [/FONT][FONT=verdana][B] F1.4 - 1/50s [/B]and [B]F22[/B][/FONT][FONT=verdana][B]- 10s[/B] As a result I have to do a lot more trial and error before I get the right image. [/FONT][FONT=verdana]It does this on both lenses and it baffles me... Am I doing something wrong or is there a problem with my camera? [/FONT] [/QUOTE]
