Re: Olympus E-PM2 Actual ISO vs IS0 set in camera?

Thank you to all for helping. The other benefit: after reading all replies I have check my recently taken photo and YES I am underexposing most of them. I am ETTR using the displayed histogram, however the histogram is related to JPG. The histograms for the most of my photos are approximately from -0.5EV to -1EV below 255. I have found several images that before correction were overexposed and that there are enough room to adjust them down -1EV to -1.5EV without loosing the highlits. No wonder that some of my images are noisy in the low light areas . However, intentionally overexposing may cause overexposure beyond the dynamic range reserve. How you manage this problem?
