Maybe i´m missing something, but i cannot get the photometer to give me a reading in the following situation - manual mode/ exposure preview off/ picture effect off/ - sure, the photometer gives me a reading (let´s say -2ev) but it´s not representative of my iso/aperture/shutter settings, even if i change any of these the photometer stays at -2ev... Any tips? And here´s some wishes on future firmware updates (been used to these on my 5D3 with Magic Lantern):
- raw histogram - raw zebras - in manual mode, exposure compensation through iso
- "locked exposure" in manual mode (mind you, not Av or Tv): let´s say you´re at iso 400, f4 and 1/2000s, and you want to just change the aperture but maintain the same exposure, or you want to change shutter speed and keep the same exposure, same for iso - you change any of these and the camera automatically adjusts one of the other two settings (which one of them will be adjusted is defined by you on the menus).
