Where do you guys get your EV ratings from?
My camera doesnt seem to show it, I get it displayed under live view, but once the shots been captured its automatically displayed as 0.0EV

I think I'll have to look into my manual, I can't seem to find the option to set exposure levels.
What I was asking was how you found it after you took your image. Once Ive taken an shot, Jpeg or raw, my camera shows 0.0EV as the exposure level under image properties in my camera, I go into the jpeg's exif, which also shows it, as well as photoshop with raw files.
The only time I can see my EV level is through live view when I'm about to take the shot. Once the image gets captured nothing to do with EV gets stored :shrug:

Oh. Just read my manual, "Exposure Compensation cannot be set using M mode" Hmm..
That's kind of annoying. lol
I see, that's like me not being able to turn off the flash with my Nikon D60 whilst using "M" mode. I just don't get it, full manual mode hello?
Guess I'll have to live with it, had a google to see if there's anything around would measure exposure, guess not.
Oh well, I'll just to have edit exposure if needed in photoshop if I feel I need to after taking the shot. Would have been nice to know the actual level's though. :down:
If you think about it this makes sense... When using manual-mode you can adjust aperture and exposure yourselve using the exposure graph (displayed in most viewfinders). If you want to over- or underexpose the picture just adjust the exposure (or the aperture) yourself, what do you need the atomatic for? Think about it, the camera would have to choose between changing the aperture or the exposure...
Exposure bias works in aperture- or exposure-automatic only on my camera and this is the way it should be imho.
This doesn't make any sense to me and I don't think this is a typical behaviour for a DSLR in manual mode (the DSLRs I've seen had a flash-button you had to push for this matter). You sure you can't disable it via the menu at least?
So your camera does the same, but does it actually display the exposure of the shot after? That's the part thats bugging me, I have no way to find out, except from shooting in a different mode or keeping an eye on live view and tabbing down each EV for each shot, which is way too much effort!
I'd love it if there was a simple option to just add the option to displa the EV once the image has been shot. Not being able to set it manually isn't really my worry as I can do that other ways as you said, not being able to read the level once the scene's been shot is what's bugging me.
'BTW, Incore wasn't actually saying his D60 did the above, I think he was just describing how he would feel without Exposure compensation and giving an example what it would be like for him.
Sadly, that is what I was saying. Here's a quick picture that I took from the manual:
http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x...p/DSC_0004.jpg
If you look at the bottom right options, "S, M", you can see that I have three options for my flash when it's in this setting. "Aufhellblitz" (lighting things up), "Reduzierung des Rote-Augen-Effekts" (Reducing the Red-Eye-Effect) and "Synchronisation auf den zweiten Verschlussvorhang" (Synchronization to the second shutter movement). The auto option includes the "Off" setting, as do a few others, but not the full manual setting. If I shoot in a too dark setting and the shutter speed is too fast for the camera, it automatically flashes, regardless if I wanted to take a really dark picture on purpose. I can push the flash back down again but it doesn't feel like that's what I'm intended to do.
Anyways, picture of the day:

Not a very good photo today but a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do. :p:
Nice Picture InCore
Here is a REALLY crappy IR i took thru my front glass door.
just testing out an old IR filter i have.
funny how the Lumix FZ5 allows IR pictures but Canon wont. (well my 20D wont)
the Lumix allows for 100% IR pictures using what ever IR filter you have. it WILL auto focus and take great shots, even in regular auto mode.
