I fix the darker pictures it produces in my post processing workflow.

I accidentally told the camera to underexpose by half a stop. I’m pretty sure I’d done that for a previous shoot and just forgot to turn it off when I was done.

I did look at the exif data but beyond to obvious stuff (exposure, aperture, ISO, focal length, exposure program, date & time…) I don’t really know what I’m looking at [or for].
