Like I said, if this is just a fault of the technology, while I would like it to be perfect, I could live with it. I am just trying to gather information and make a rational decision on whether this is a quirk of the particular camera in my hands so that I might know if I should send it in. The problem might be symptomatic of some larger problem with this particular camera. I should think a new camera (less than 10 days in my hands) should operate as intended. Again, as far as only showing problems if underexposed by 4 stops as you say, I can clearly point to my photo marked 3 as not being underexposed but yet showing the problem. And I clearly say that I am not likely to shoot often at 1600, especially at small f stops, but I still think it should operate correctly (that is, as any other example of the camera operates).
