Point in case: when I reviewed my Seca 700 Ultra, I first tried using MTBR's camera settings. The resulting photos were much brighter than they appeared in real life, so I adjusted the settings to portray the light the way it looks in real life (to me, anyway). Granted, my eyes are over 40 years old and not necessarily representative of everyone's.
