Auto Lighting optimizer setting is on the second menu tab (from the left) and second one down on that list. Easy to find. I know I've seen this exact thing posted in the past. What good it is if it causes problems, I don't know - maybe it's just for special circumstances. But I'll be interested to find out if it's turned on.

Thanks for pointing that out. The Auto Lighting Optimizer was set to STANDARD. I've now set it to Off. Also the Exposure Comp was set to 0.

Be interesting to see if you think your shots improve. I know that setting was a bone of contention with some others unhappy with its effects.
