Hi, I had testet my EOS 3 body (because I bought it second-hand), and the service stated that it underexposes max. 1/2 EV. The deviation isn't consistent, sometimes smaller, eg. 1/3 at certain amount of light and 1/2 at other EVs. He also said that it is within the official acceptance interval, so the camera need no repair. I may use +1/3 exp. compensation, if I wish (or adjust the ISO setting). Are there any official statement about how narrow (or wide) should be this acceptance interval, how much deviation is allowed from the optimum? The camere was manufactured in 2001 July ( OOO711). Thanks, Zoli === Hi Zoli, My (relatively new - 2 months old) EOS 3 also consistently underexposed for 1/3 stop (comparing w/ EOS 620, 50E, and D30). It doesn't bother me since I just leave the exposure compensation at + 1/3 stop.
