May I chime in -

not owning a M7 - hasn't the brand new camera got an <exposure lock> switch
(operated in AUTO mode) of a kind?

AE is not the best way to go in a situation like this. At least not the
way it has been implemented in the M7. The same light is falling on the
black suits and the white table cloth so just meter once and lock it
using manual. Having to constantly twiddle the exposure compensation
dial is not faster just sillier!
