I agree last time it was my fault - accidentally had set the exposure compensation and high ISO even in daylight. However, even with suggested settings this is happening again.

Attached are couple of pictures that were shot at ISO-200 0-step bias and f/160. I had to heavily edit them in lightroom to get back the details in the highlights. Still it all looks so washed out.

Can you post these unedited for us. It's possible there may be something wrong with your camera/lens (besides the copious dust ).

Regardless, I'd really recommend learning a little more about the "Creative Modes." That way you can control the exposure yourself to a much higher degree (or completely when using Full Manual).

Thx,
