If you're shooting print film, and your pictures are weak looking, with very thin negatives, you're actually underexposing. I've had problems with this, too. Here's what happens: we let the sky overinfluence our exposure, causing the light meter to overreact and close down the aperture (or speed up the shutter), starving our film of light. If your prints are consistently turning out this way, your camera's light meter could be way out of adjustment. If slides turn out weak and thin, then you are overexposing. Again, if it happens consistently, then your light meter is off. I suggest you shoot a short roll of slide film, of a subject in even light, without a lot of sky. See if they look normal. If not, the problem might be the camera.
