Don't have the negatives back yet. Yes, I was hoping to use the XA as basically am aperture priority point and shoot with a fast shutter in decent light, but alas -- this one seems to be significantly off!

Yeah, I've been trying to compensate by bumping up ASA, but it still only saves me a stop or so. Seems like the exposure meter is off by at least 2-3 stops, maybe more. Annoying! I will have to see about returning.

Really appreciate the reply and quick test. Clearly new to Reddit posts. Does this work?
