In my experience can be close, (~.5 to 1 stop) Remember that the M8/9 has a brightness sensor which can be used for comparison against the metered value for some functions (including flash and some corrections in firmware). Reportedly also used to adjust the finder display brightness. I think that the value was always present in the metadata but not read/reported previously.
