There was a bit here about automatic cameras and consistent exposure, I was just trying out the Oly for some eBay photos. With the camera mounted in a fixed position, fixed lighting, and the same subject, shiny against a medium dark background, moved about to show different details, and the cameras set on aperture preferred mode at f5.6 I got shutter speeds ranging for 0.6 to 4.0 seconds. That is 4 full stops! I would certainly call that inconsistent. I will have to reshoot, but have decided I want a different background, so will have to wait until I can get the material. Next time around it will be manual exposure all the way.
