[QUOTE="westmill, post: 60628, member: 9330"] The trouble is, meters simply are not perfect. They do a great job, but they can easily be fooled. The meter sees everything as a midtone grey, no mater what. I tend to use centre weighted in conjunction with the AE lock. I find this a more workable solution, or at least more reliable. The Nikon D300 is a bugger for massivley over exposing in bright contrasty condittions. Its genraly quick and easy to spot and use something to take a reading from that reflects an average grey tone. If your camera underexposes, you could always set + compensation dial and leave it there. As long as its consistent of course :) [/QUOTE]
