Try a battery-out reset. Remove the batteries, let set for 24 hours, replace batteries. It's worth a shot...

Let us know.

Does the problem exist when in 'AUTO' mode?

Can you adjust the problem by modifying the EV compensation (EV+/-) setting?

By 'how much' is it underexposing? Would you say it is 1 stop out, 2 stops out, or more? If you don't know what a stop is, it's the same scale as EV compensation uses.

If it's a flash problem, how far away is the subject of your photograph?
