For the other lenses, I usually underexpose for what the meter says, it's just my preference. But for this lens it seems like I don't have to purposely underexpose for my liking. I am not sure.
    If I shoot JPEG, the highlight of the person's skintone usually turns yellow, it's just annoying. So I tend to underexpose for this reason as well.
