TPF Noob!
I've had my D200 for about a month now. I started a thread a few weeks ago because I was noticing some photos I took in full shade were coming out underexposed. I did some more test shots..
I took photos (same subject) in Full Sun/midday and used a gray card to expose...the reading from my camera told me to use f5.6 @ 1600. Photo came out very underexposed/dark. I re-took the same photo @ 800, 400 and 200 speed and after downloading, the 400 looked the best. This tells me that my meter reading in my camera is off by about 2 stops.
Could I be doing something else wrong? The D200 is definately a more complicated camera than my last DSLR. Has anyone else had this significant of a problem? Just wanted to ask before I contacted Nikon.
