Thanks, it was off. I had it off probably because I don't really
understand the description. "If on the effects of exposure compensation
are not visible." That sounds like the opposite of what I want but I've
changed it and will see what happens.
Perhaps I had previously had it turned on and turned it off since I've
always thought the display showed me what the actual exposure would look
like. I was surprised that I had to use exposure compensation to get a
proper view. Probably the main exposure setting was just wrong.
