I don't know. It might be that I'm too high on the zuiko's right now,
but I see much less inconsistency than with the E-bodies. I use the
"evaluative whatever c*non metering" and not center weighted, maybe
that's a difference? I have to admit that I used manual mode most of
the time in the snow, and for the night shots I dial in -1 to -2 stop
when wide open, just because I like them dark as dark is. I haven't
had the time yet in normal circumstances (daylight) to really use the
camera.
