Hrmmm, you're right, it's protecting the highlights in the reflection. Actually doing a great job at it.

Not really. You would have to pump "Exposure" on LR by +1.55 on the Raw file for the tiniest of specks to show up overexposed on the blue channel only

The M3/G1X II would blow that right out, yup, and the M5 holds onto it. I never made much of it, until now you mention it.

You need the equivalent of a DR-, ha! IE don't protect highlights, you need Canon to undo some of their new DIGIC7 logic, yup.

Evaluative metering used? Or spot? Hate to ask, I only ask as you've got better results protecting that highlight then my M5, which I kinda envy ironically, but yeah, it'd drive me nuts too.

Evaluative.

I always do this "acceptance check" taking the cameras on my usual exercise-walk circuit in Evaluative metering mode. Once I "validate" it, I know all the others will "fall in place"
