DW,

I have a 990. Great camera! In addition to Aus's suggestions here are a few others. If you are having this porblem, you are probably taking many pictures where there are parts of your subject frame which has a lot of light, but are not in the center of focus of the picture. In such cases, try this. Before you shoot the picture, point the camera so that a darker part of the picture you are taking is in the middle of the LED viewing screen and the lighting looks good in that little screen. Then, push the shudder halfway down to freeze the exposure and hold it there. Then center the picture to your liking and push the shudder the rest of the way.

Also, go to the metering menu and select "Center weighted" or "spot" rather than the default "matrix"

Also, for flash, there is a seperate adjustment in the menu to lighten or darken the flash shot.

For many camera sites, just do a "NIKON 990" search using GOOGLE search engine.

Hope this helps.
