Yup, some of them are very odd.

My SOP, especially in challenging lighting is trust but verify. The 3III has a 
lot of metering modes, and I think that I just don’t know how to make the best 
of them. Unfortunately in situations like last night, I simply didn’t have the 
time to understand WTF the camera was trying to do, and changing my angle could 
dramatically affect the exposure. 

I posted elselist the link to my photos with the K-1, but for the sake of flow:

It had little trouble, especially bracketing -2 and 0 stops.
