Yup, dropping gamma can bring a little more drama. Not a universal cure however, for some exposures it can muddy things more. I noticed this -

Try some center spot meter mode instead (targeting a non-snow part of the scene) and you may be able to back down on that big EV compensation. But the exposure did turn out fine, I'm just not comfy with whopping EV jags :silly:
