Hello Walter,
it's a problem with levels, not with the camera, probably during the
auto-exposure process of scanning.
You can get close to a correction in Photoshop (levels) using the
eyedroppers at the bottom, below the histogram.
select the brightest point by clicking on it with the white eyedropper
and then the darkest with the black eyedropper.
Voila - a nice black and white shot
Hope this helps a little
Douglas

Hello,
I am getting some unpleasant exposure results with my R7 and I don't
know if it is my inexperience or something to do with the camera. I use
P mode often and maybe it's just not suitable where there is strong back
light.
The other possibility is that the leds on the right are displaying two
aperture modes when I take the shot, eg, f2.8 and f4.0 lit up. The
manual instructs to change the shutter speed dial until only one
aperture reading displays, I have largely ignored this. Anyway I get
two or three shots like this in a role and the only pattern I can see is
the scene has bright lighting in the background.
Here is an example. Maybe someone has experienced this, I'm hoping it
is operator error.
