Re: TG-6 cosistenly overexposus

Thanks

I had to look up "Backscatter" and found a good few of TG related videos................I would welcome knowing which video and the time stamp to watch the relevant part

FWIW I tried to see what would happen:-

Zoom fully at the wide end
Centre of frame my desklamp with its white painted interior surface (NB not pointing directly at the lamp but the white surface.
@ f2.8, 1/50s and ISO 200 the light is so over exposed I have the blinkies.
@ f8.0, 1/25s and ISO 800 only the slightest of blinkies around the edge of the shade.

FWIW the Histogram for both has the same "distribution" but with some minor variations in the peak heights mainly on the left hand side.

So, it does seem that something is going on.....but what is unclear.  And why only apparently at the wide end of the zoom???

Note @ I only ever shoot raw so the rear screen is showing the embedded JPEG so when I get the test shots on the PC and examine them with Fast Raw Viewer it will be interesting to what (if anything?) is revealed about the raw file histogram extc

So, if you can point me to the video and the time point that would be great....as I hate a mystery
