Congrats on the new 550! I just picked my 550 up last week and absolutely LOVE IT!! I noticed that in your pictures your ambient lights seem much much brighter than mine. Is this due to your camera or is there a setting that I'm not aware of?

I think it's the camera setting. I think the Ivory interior also makes the lighting stand out more. There is no switch setting I can think of that you can adjust the ambient lighting. Hey, I noticed you're from Calabasas!......I used to live there a few years ago on Las Virgenes Rd. and Thousand Oaks Blvd.!......awesome community, I really miss it!
