Is anyone finding that their k-5 leans towards over exposure? I often have to use -.7 to -1 ev compensation. I find this consistent across old glass. With the kit lens and thr 12-24 it seems to do a bit better, but still overexposes at times. I generally use matrix metering. Even in well lit scenes in daylight. Sometimes with the same glass it works fine at , but I'm forced to chimp constantly to look for overexposure. Also the meter seems to jump around on the same scene. I tried some shots between my k-7 and it was matching settings, so I can't decide it my meter is working properly. There is generally a 1ev difference if I compare to live view with live view giving the correct/better exposure reading. Any thoughts from you guys? I bought this k-5 six months ago and I don't remember making -.7 the norm on my k-7. I usually only had to add negative compensation at night on that camera....
