"does the D40 have a defective light meter?"


US
          

I read on Ken Rockwell's site that the D40 has a defective meter, and should leave the exposure compensation to -0.7. I wanted to see what the general thoughts were on this.

Is this something everyone agrees with you? Should I do this? I take 95% of my pictures indoors.

Also, when using a flash (like the sb-600) would I still want to do this?

Thanks.
