Very interesting., I just received some shots back from "gold"
printing, taken with the Elan 7, and there was a note from the lab
saying "underexposed, lacks detail in shadow area." It was admittedly
a high contrast situation - some Elk standing against the sky, and the
shadow areas were under their bellies and in the crevices of their
"armpits."
I *am* noticing that on a somewhat intuitive level, with lots of film
going through the camera and watching the results, that in other than
really bright situations, my left thumb is more often than not wanting
to creep the exposure compensation up a 1/2 or a whole stop.
Certainly all of this varies with film, though, or at least how
noticeable the overexposure is, and there fore how much correction is
necessary.
