[QUOTE="hark, post: 736118, member: 13196"] The only setting I can think of that might do it is bracketing. I found I didn't like using spot metering with my D7200 because the exposure would be all over the place - even when taking successive shots. Are you sure you aren't accidentally in highlight weighted spot metering? The icon is almost the same as spot metering and definitely renders darker images. But after looking at the EXIF data, both indicate metering mode of [B]3[/B] so I'm assuming they are both using the same metering method. I have no other ideas except maybe the camera drifted slightly to one side metering from the sky. Otherwise, it just doesn't make any sense. Is there any way you can do a controlled metering test to see if the metering is consistent? Maybe something is going on with it. :confused: [/QUOTE]
