What I mean is that actual exposure in the file is just perfect despite what is SHOWN in EVF.

Ok, so it doesn`t work like that for me, exposure in the file being the same as (wrongly) locked on shutter button half-press...

I use the back button for AF when using AFC and shutter button for shutterr release

... but I guess this is the reason for the difference - if you use back-button focusing, I guess it means you`re not even half-pressing the shutter button then, but just fully pressing it to take picture? If so, you don`t trigger shutter button half-press unexpected exposure locking in the first place.

Will try the alternative config and report

Thanks, do try to use the shutter button half-press for focusing alone (not back-button), as it might be what "SHUTTER AE" is tied to (where it should make sense to have it tied to whatever button is doing the "half-press" operation of focusing, like back-button in your case, but might be it`s not how it works).
