Hi
I've found that my camera (Nikon D40X) tends to overexpose the image when matrix metering, leading to highlight clipping.
I've been messing about with EV compensation, it ranges from 0.3 to 2.3 EV, depending on how high contrast the image is.
Is this an acceptable way of working (mess about with EV compensation until you get an image without highlight clipping) or is there a more professional way of doing it?
