That is weird. Are you taking pictures in similar light? Or is the light source a lot different and that's why you're using 400 speed film? Given that the exposure is good with your longer lenses, I'd guess that something about the lighting is throwing you off balance. With the Leica, the longer the lens, the less effective area you're metering. Yes, it's effectively a "large spot" meter. Take a look at the white dot on the shutter with your lens off. That's the size and location of where the meter reads. -- Eric http://canid.com/
