Discovered that I also have the problem. Is Nikon addressing this issue? In the mean time I guess we just set EV to -1.0? Center weighted seems to give a more accurate exposure than matrix. Any other suggestions? Thanks.

I've always felt that mine overexposes even before the firmware upgrade. I have mine set at -.3 or -.7, but when shooting underwater, I have it set at -1.
You should prolly take a look at and maybe join NikonCafe.com to get Nikon questions answered. It's free and a good friendly resource of information.
Good Luck

Jim,
Peter had the same problem with his D300 after a firmware upgrade. He sent it back to Nikon twice, they replaced the exposure/focus chip.
I am assuming you are back in the States safe and sound.
It was great diving with you again, Bali and Komoto were awsome.
