Hey guys, first time post here, but I haven't gotten a lot of useful information from reading everyone else's posts, so thank you!
I'm running into this problem that my monitor (and viewfinder) are giving me inaccurate exposure readings. So when I look over my footage on my computer, things are starting to look blown out and overexposed when I KNOW it didn't look like that when I shot it. I shoot weddings, so it's a lot of run-n-gun stuff in harsh lighting a lot of the time, so checking my histogram isn't always my first go-to since I'm more focused on not missing any crucial moments. The majority of the time I just go off of what I see, but now it's starting to give me issues since switching from my Canon 5D mk ii to the A7s.
So here's my question: Is anyone else noticing exposure inaccuracies on their camera? Am I working with a faulty camera?
Here's a couple screen grabs from my computer and from the back of the camera. Sorry for the cell phone quality, but it should give you an idea of what I'm talking about.
You can see in his white shirt especially that there's quite a shift.
Let me know what you guys think! And thanks in advance.
