I agree Peire\'s image are always ~0.66 stops overexposed. This is consistent with all Peire\'s images also have in EXIF information that \"Exposure Bias: +0.70 EV\" which will generally result overexposure with A7-series. I can\'t remember many times Peire had 1 stop overexposure, and I don\'t remember ever seen 1.5 stop overexposure from Peire (but I also don\'t follow other threads than this, Zeiss & Leica threads). I guess over the years I have adjusted my brain for Peire\'s shots as they have always been like this and I just compensate with brains.
What cd/m2 value and gamma you have calibrated your monitor? Your photos seem ~0.66 stops underexposed (based on the architectural post few pages ago and these marine images), or you aim to very grungy and dark look? I have my main computer now 150cd/m2 (gamma 2.2), and secondary computer is 120cd/m2 (gamma 2.2). With both computers your images look too dark (unless that is the artistic look you prefer) and Peire\'s overexposed.
Hard to judge on forums as some people don\'t have professional workflow including calibration, and many people have artistic preferences, for which they don\'t aim natural image rendering style.

I have set exposure compensation +0,7EV on every Mirrorless camers that I have to balance out the light lost caused by mechanical adapters.
On my laptop pictures look well exposed,but yes,when I look at them,placed on different sites,I sometimes see that they are usually slightly overexposed.
