I have EOS50+380EX and did test three years ago. The result is the same as describe. What I did is to put dark subject in the center with different amount of white wall in the back (typical snap shot of people). E-TTL does a pre-flash first (then the main flash). It seems that it measures the overall light reflected and decided that it is in bright daylight and -1.5 stop is used on flash power. There you got various degree of underexposure. Nowadays, I just do a flash compensation of +1.5 Stop that cure some of the problem (while some other pictures over exposured). Lawrence C http://my.yahoo.com.au - My Yahoo! - It's My Yahoo!
