Smug reply?? I’m merely agreeing with the OP, who has admitted that he may be the problem. You are the only one I’m putting down!
I do not feel put down. maybe try again?

When I burn some image I switch to automatic and see what the camera thinks the correct settings should be. I shoot the image then see what the camera used. set the camera to manual setting and duplicate the automatic settings. The exposure should be the same as "auto". Now if it is still messed up I would reset the settings to "factory". Usually that get's me straightened out. I hate to admit it, but Canon is usually best. :o)

What does that tell you that adjusting in manual to center/zero the meter won't tell you, as far as exposure is concerned?

If you have auto bracketing on, it will do that. I found out the hard way. Someone one on this forum told me about it. Good luck.

I want to express a GREAT BIG THANK YOU!!! to all who responded. When you suggested bracket exposure that rang a bell. I had used it at a wedding. I have reset both cameras and they are working just fine. I can't say THANK YOU enough. I was ready to send both cameras to Nikon for repair at $350 each. Your help is very much appreciated.
