Strangely, was talking about exp comp, or lack of it on the 40D, last night. Pics like the above and the Nikon attention to all details (like exp comp) are making me seriously contemplate changing tack from Canon to Nikon. Was out yesterday for a sunrise and was struggling as exp comp only goes down to -2. With light changing so rapidly it's a right PIA to get manual exposure right - permanently fiddling with the camera, whereas I can accurately gauge the change in exp comp

BTW, I find the exposure correct on those pics - the out-of-camera auto settings on most dSLRs are (or were) tweaked downward (hence past criticisms of underexposure) - it's thought to prevent clipping
