Might just be the light itself being odd with you - but different lenses will have slightly different light capturing abilities - even when rated the same (I once compared a 300mm f2.8 to a 70-200mm f2.8 and the 300mm was much brighter in the viewfinder). It should be taken into account by the camera, but if its still giving you trouble a little -1/3EC and you're good to go.

Also try putting a 2*TC on the lens - becomes a great close up lens then for flowers and the like (and its pretty good long distance too)

Thanks overread. I'm not really worried, just curious. I spent an hour this afternoon at a small civil war re-enactment display at Lancaster castle. I'm just looking at the pics now and I'm absolutely stunned by the sharpness and the colour. I doubt I shall have to do anything worth speaking of in PS. Just beautiful.
