+1
My 40d\'s EC is \"stuck\" on +1/3 for all photography (besides just BIF), it\'s usually perfect at that setting and if not, it is easier to bring down exposure in PP than it is to bring it up. When shooting 90% of birds which have a dark coat against a bright sky or water, that EC goes up to +2/3 or +1. White birds like the egrets get 0 EC but I will usually still have to bring the exposure down in PP. It\'s pretty simple most of the time unless you go from an egret to a coot and back again often which actually happened to me once and I forgot to change the EC setting.
