Not necessarily. That's why I posted the link to understanding how metering works.... so the light meter bar reads dead center which should technically be a properly exposed image...
The meter in the camera is going to calculate an exposure for the sampled area (which varies depending on the metering mode being used) that would be a proper exposure IF the area is neutral gray. If the sampling area has a large area of solid color (i.e. sky, water, grass, pavement, etc.) the exposure will virtually always be wrong.
