Is it fair to say that digital is like shooting slides? I've read that in several places. To be honest, I haven't shot many slides nor have I noticed any particular exposure problems with my E-10. I just use segment or spot metering as I would on my MZ-s and it comes out fine. Of course, I do get to check it and shoot again in many cases if I need to.

I just shoot it like with print film, but instead of worrying about underexposure, I worry about overexposure.
