Sekonic's calibration standard is a little bit different. The factory-standard calibration will produce pictures that are about 2/3 stop underexposed.

The full details about this issue are at Kinesis' website. Fortunately, the meters can be recalibrated. I have mine set to -0.7, so the meter's ISO 100 is the same as the camera's ISO 100.
