Has anyone else experienced this with their B1W?
I was watching some footage from a drive the other evening, and my B1W had a very sharp and sudden drop in the exposure. It went from normal decent video, to extremely dark, very quickly. The video generally stayed extremely dark from that point on, however it would brighten up to "normal" brightness again any time I went under an overpass. So it appears to be problem with the camera's metering, not an issue of it being too dark outside for video capture. As you can see, the "dark" video is excessively dark, even underexposing the sky.
Short animated gif of the issue is attached below:
I should add that this is with one of the new B1W circular polarizers attached, but I am unsure if the issue is related or not.
