[QUOTE="mlatham, post: 310679, member: 25564"] Hi all, First post here. I seem to have an issue I cant a solution for... Occasionally when Im shooting with my D800 and the Nikkor 70-200 lens the first frame looks correct and then the following 2nd 3rd 4th frames are noticeably darker? This happens when I shoot fast, as in 4/5 frames in one go. It also happens when I shoot in Continuous High / Low mode. It only happens with the Nikkor 70-200 AF-S VR 2.8 - not with my 50mm 1.8 / 15mm 2.8 fisheye or 28-70mm 2.8 Its very odd! I noticed it happen about a year ago - and a few times since. I did some tests - Shooting 1 frame at a time with a second gap at the same still subject and each shot was fine, as soon as I started to shoot a bit quicker this behavior happens. The first frame is fine and the rest in that burst are darker. I checked the meta data and each is exactly the same? Heres 2 shots I did as a test out of my window. Both fired in quick succession and exported with no changes. Both on the D800 / Nikkor 70-200mm. at 320th f4.5 ISO 500 at 200mm. As you can see the second is a lot darker?!!![ATTACH=CONFIG]90797._xfImport[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]90798._xfImport[/ATTACH] Anyone have any ideas?!?! Thanks Mark [/QUOTE]
