20d underexposes 2/3 stop

I had an xt and the metering was fine I rarely had to change the exposure on it, the only time I had to change it was in the snow / somethind dark etc. But since I went to the 20D I constantly and I mean always have to set it + 2/3 for the exposure to be right. Its like that in all the metering modes, every lens I have, bright, dark, sunny, dull, indoor, outdoor it doesnt matter it always does it

not really a big deal I just leave it on + 2/3 but I am wondering why is it like that? everything else functions perfectly without issue.

it has the latest firmware on it as well

any ideas?

That's strange. From my experience, the 20D metered very similarly to my 1d2n. You say it happens no matter how you meter? Have any examples I can check out? What happens when you shoot an 18% gray card (or a white sheet of paper for that matter)? Is it overly dark?

Yup, That is how both my 20D and 1DMk2N are setup +2/3.

I generally leave mine in the middle and make adjustments based on the subject (- on dark subjects and + on lighter subjects).

ah I never tried the gray card I will give that a

maybe its just my eyes

I will take some pics today and post them

This was one of the most recent photos I took with the 20D. Not much artistic quality but with that many bees swarming around, I really didn't care either.
