Actually, yes, since you asked...

I pull PEF files from the card and deposit them in a
folder on the hard disk using DNG Converter, renaming
them and turning them into compressed dng's on the
way.

Opening the pix with Bridge and ACR, I noticed the
exposures were very inconsistent; and then I noticed
that the settings for brightness, contrast, shadows,
etc were all over the place.  So, I set all the
controls to 0 or dead-center (whichever was
appropriate) and defined those as my default settings.
 The results have been very consistent ever since.

The cameras were exposing properly; ACR was screwing
things up with its interpretations of what the
exposures ought to be.
