I assume you mean you were using TTL here which gave you at least one
stop underexposure? I have found at ISO 200 thesame thing using the
external flash at TTL. In auto, so using the sensor of the flash, it
works very good, also the ISO value, focal length and aperture are
transmitted to the flash.

I also think it is frustrating. From what I heard is that the TTL only
works correct at ISO 400, below that you get under exposure, and above
ISO 400 you get over exposure. I hope for a firmware update.

Did you found any relation in the flash TTL behaviour in regards to the
sensitivity setting?
