_{NO I'M NOT GOING TO SELL YOU CAMERA ACCESSORIES AND PARTS, HAHA.
hi. well. i dunno what to say first really.
uhm.hello to all.hoho..okay, well i guess I'm not helping myself at all. okay! i'll go straight to the point.

WAIT. I'M REFFERING TO ALMOST-EVERYONE..
ANYONE WITH THE SAME SITUATION AS MINE. EITHER you're USING NIKON, PENTAX, SONY, OLYMPUS OR OTHER BRANDS IN THE MARKET.

OKAY, GO.

here it goes,
i have my Canon EOS 400D in hand.
it's quite a great gift, actually. and i love it. kweee .. i just started having some difficulties in it.
not big though.

i noticed that the photos that i took looked okay on the LCD screen, however, when i transfer those pictures in the PC, it looked rather darker than usual.i find it odd.
i checked the camera's LCD brightness' display, just to make sure that it is just right in the middle.
then i think the problem might be in my monitor..--but it's just on the right set up.
i wondered.
i tried to print directly on my Selphy printer from the camera to check if the color is OK, but it is darker as well.

Another situation is that i used my 400D's light meter as a guide when I'm doing my traditional photography plate. I'm using Pentax 35 mm camera by then, (film).That camera's light meter is screwed, so my final option is to use the 400D. I got shocked when i received the contact print (index print) of the developed film -- some of my pictures, the ones before dawn, were underexposed. others, plain black.I wondered, it looked normal when i grabbed my 400D.then i transferred those pictures in PC, i was shocked to see that it really IS dark indeed.

goodness. __

*the photo with the girl and bonnet look darker than the original picture. i had to make some adjustments to make it look okay.*

*__*

Do you have any idea about it? Do you have the same situation?

i really wanted to have answers on these questions.i don't want to post process every photo that i took with photoshop!. that's just.. too much.
so..that's it.

HELP?

would be very glad to see a comment regarding this,,

charlene.

ahmmm, ang experience ko noon or even until now, ay yung about rin sa nakikita mo sa LCD screen ng camera..oftentimes, hindi ko makikita or maapreciate tung kuha ko kung hindi ko i-transfer sa pc. in my case, dark rin yung makita ko sa LCD..so, what i did, i will just look at my exposure metering tapos yung ISO setting at iba pang makakaapekto ng shot ko. ang tingnan ko na lang sa LCD ay yung sharpness and composition. and, I think about your case, it's time to use photoshop to adjust what is needed to be adjusted. but not too much. for me, there is no problem if your using photoshop basta may limitation ka lang sa gagawin mo sa photo mo. i hope makakatulong advice ko..paki-check na lang uli ng mga settings mo sa cam.

don't rely on your lcd. check your settings

I usually get overexposed shots and i don't like it

or maybe there something wrong in your PC monitor. o well some shots na clear sa LCD is not really as clear in monitors find the setting on your DSLR(congrats!

) maybe you set your pictures in a small format or something
