[QUOTE="richardhurst, post: 340160, member: 29381"] Thanks for your reply. It operates completely different on Canon Liveview. In it's simplest terms what I tried today was to expose correctly for the foreground then add graduated filters to bring back the sky so that it did not blow the highlights. On this occasion I was using a 0.9 and a 0.6 stop hard graduated filter which should of been more than enough to control the sky but I found that I was still having to shot 2 stops under exposed to not blow out the sky which made the foreground dark. So i'm wondering if with the Nikon it matters what metering mode your in i.e. spot, partial etc. because I should be able to expose properly for the foreground then add the filters for the sky and maybe just tweak my shutter speed slightly to get the histogram in he right place. I shouldn't be having to shot so underexposed. It's like its metering the sky rather than the foreground. [/QUOTE]
