Hey gang.
Getting back from day one of a 3 day horse show.
Received my D2H back the other day, that went in for an over exposure concern. I had a
chance to
test it out to day,at the show,plus also read some of the posts from Unka Mikes original
thread on
exposure books etc.
I have come to the conclusion that not all manufactures agree on what a good exposure is.
See link below.

No adjustment has been made other than resizing for web.
Camera was set on iso 250 in Tv mode of 1/250. As you can see the day is very sunny. Even
i have
learnt(g)from the pdml that the exposure for this shot,using the S16 rule should have been
in the
neighbourhood of 1/250 and around f 11.
The tech data from the camera was 1/250 F3.00. Close to -1.0 to -1.5 ev was needed. I
can't seem to
get across to some tech people that the camer work fine before they replaced the AE board
last
winter.<g>
Now you tell me. Am i nuts,or so stupid that i cannot work a camera properly, or is there
a problem
with not only this, but 99% of the stuff i tested today. If i'm stupid, don't hold back
folks:-)
Sorry for the rant. I'm just royaly P#$O&^'D off today as you can wel imagine.
BTW, I don't get this kind of exposure on my istD at all,nor the D1.
