Hi Jim,

I am worried about the "wiggling" to check for metering accuracy. I suggest
using a bright table lamp with a dimmer switch, and set up a metering target
(e.g. Book) that is bright along the left side, and very dark (deep shadow)
along the right side, and the transition at the centre of the frame. Mount
the camera on a tripod, and select the Right-most AF sensor, CF8=1, and Av
mode.

It should be possible to get different meter readings when selecting between
Evaluative, Partial, and Centre-weighted mode. You can also check if there
is a mode switch (e.g. To Evaluative), or if NEVEC occurs by changing the
brightness of your lamp.

Cheers
