If the prints look underexposed, how do the negatives look? It's possible, especially with a non-pro lab, to have fine negatives but to have your prints come back tinted crazy colours or a bit off in brightness. It might be worthwhile having some of them reprinted at a better lab to see how they turn out. I've seen some perfectly hideous prints made from good negatives, so you never know. If the negatives are underexposed by a significant amount... why? Did you have the 5n set to spot-meter by mistake? Were you using the built-in flash past 10 feet or letting it provide the majority of light for the exposure? What could have caused it, do you think? chris - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
