p.1 #1 · 2 10d's, but different light meters???

I have 2 10d's , and i noticed something. With one of mine, the exposure meter in the view finder, there is one bar that shows you where your at, if you know what i mean. The second 10d sometimes shows two bars..

Does someone get what i mean? did canon change something??

I don't have a 10D any more, so I can't check this, but it sounds like you have exposure compensation set.

One camera is set to 1/2 stop, another one to 1/3 stop steps, if you know what I mean.
