[QUOTE="hark, post: 759317, member: 13196"] I always struggled with matrix metering and instead use center weighted metering most of the time (except when I switch to spot metering on rare occasions). No matter whether I'm photographing a bird or a plane, I always override my EV and dial in +0.7. The sky is extremely bright and will heavily influence metering. Honestly I'm surprised you photographed planes with the D7200 just by using matrix metering and not needing to increase your exposure. It just didn't work for me. You can always keep using matrix metering but try and increase your exposure with the +/- button and see if you will get more consistent exposures. One more thought...the D7200 is a DX sensor. Perhaps with planes being closer in the DX viewfinder, there might not have been as much sky in those images to influence its sensor? [/QUOTE]
