I am managing to underexpose all my pix at the moment so I have to figure out why I'm doing that when I didn't seem to do it with the SX50.

Very odd. experiment with the different metering systems (Nina's book p. 174).

Definitely a "me" issue. I went back to TV and what I took today was much better.

I found there are lots of things to learn (and remember) after the EOS 5D. I find Fv mode works best for me, but you have to get used to it. The menu contents change with the shooting mode: that can trip you up!

I'm coming from the SX50 so this is a huge change. And I haven't touched my old 80s 35mm since 2007 or so. I've forgotten a LOT.

Is Canon's DPP4 good enough? I just downloaded it but haven't done anything with it. I don't think LR6 will see RAW from this camera.

I dont find it as good as PhotoLab 5 Elite, but if you want that, I advise you to wait until it goes on sale.

I think I have some of their LR filters, but unfortunately their system requirements are above my OS. Unless they still sell older versions, worth looking into. Thanks!
