huh? the original poster already stated that his two pentax DSLRs were not matched with respect to meter sensistivity. What does "self containment" ( whatever you mean that to be ) have to do with metering sensitivity? Or are you trying to say that are all perfectly matched to each other intially and forever? What if you dont Like or want the metering sensitivity the camera gives you ?( like the other poster didn't, he had to use exp. compensation to get what he wanted) jco

This sort of user calibration would seem to be pretty unnecessary too, since DSLR cameras are self contained. Calibrating one to the other would merely involve getting the histograms consistent.
