[Leica] (OT) I really am not bonding with my X100 :-(

My X100 meters very well except for the easily knocked askew compensation 
dial. Check which metering pattern you have selected. I set mine to 
semi-spot as I prefer to make the decision as to what gets metered. Perhaps 
you have it set to "matrix" metering where the camera makes, hopefully, 
educated guesses as to what is going on, seemingly, in this case, without 
complete success.
