Exposure Problems on a D750
Dec 23, 2015 16:31:11 #
This is my second D750 in a months.
Per the advice of other Hogs i returned the first one to Adorama cause i had it less than a month.
The first D750 needed exposure compensation beyond the range of optimal exposure.
This one in low light conditions the images are under exposed.
In sunlight they are over exposed & sometimes under exposed.
My white balance is in auto mode.
Need some advice from other D750 owners.
The LCD does not display the real image when downloaded on my pc.
My other cameras D7100 & D800 show on the LCD the image that i download on my pc.

I've had my D750 for well over a year now. Although 'I' occasionally miss exposure, I have no problems that I attribute to the 'camera'. It captures whatever it's told to capture within its normal dynamic range. The LCD brightness is adjustable. I don't rely on it to judge exposure, I look at the histogram or the highlight warning indicator.

Later if needed.
I just swapped the SD cards from my D7100 to my D750.
I will shoot some images tomorrow.

I appreciate your response.
What are you looking for in the images??
I have every area covered just like in my other 3 Nikon's & they perform producing great images.
What do you want P,S, or A in jpeg??

It is useful to see some of those faulty images to look at the data regarding camera settings to check if you have accidentally done something wrong to make the pictures worse than they should be. Just post a couple or so and remember to click "download original" so we can have a closer look and try to help you figure out the problem.
There are many easy ways for you to over or underexposure your pics with wrong settings. Posting some faulty pics for us is the only way for us to help you out here.
If you are getting bad results with all the D750 you buy then you are either doing something wrong or you are exceptionally unlucky with those cameras.
Have you checked your metering mode? Have you checked if you have set your camera to under/overexpose a bit? Those are the 2 most likely mistakes you might be doing.

It would answer many many questions if you just posted a bad image with the original stored - the metering mode would be listed in the EXIF data along with much else.

If you look at the manual for the camera you can look up the metering mode. It is about how the camera selects the area of the frame that it uses for metering the light to decide if it should try to make a good metering in all the frame, in just the center of the frame or a center weighted metering. It is very important to know how to use this setting to get the pics properly exposed.

P,S & A.
P is for program, meaning the camera will select all the basic settings.
S is for shutter priority, meaning you select the shutter speed, camera decides the rest of the basic settings.
A is for aperture priority, meaning you select the aperture, camera decides the rest of the basic settings.
Metering mode is not one of those basic settings that the camera will select so that is something you have to set according to what you want the camera to do. And the M on the same dial as P,S and A does not stand for metering mode. It is for manual mode in case you might be confused by this letter on the dial.
