As expected, the k7 did a much better job of metering. I think you're about right with those. You have to expect the somewhat blown backgrounds if your subjects are properly exposed. I might shoot a test or two with multipoint metering, look at the histo, then adjust exposure comp if necessary. That's pretty much the way I approach every metering situation these days.
