P3D XA2's Underexposure

My XA2's underexpose all the time. I doubted the fact that both cameras
would have sensor problems resulting in matched, but underexposed
images. I have to set the cameras to ISO 64 while using 100 ISO film to
compensate. This is irritating to have the DOF restricted on a perfect
shot otherwise! Shooting Velvia ( my favorite film) ISO 50 would be
impossible to hand hold using this compensation method. Do any websites
or Olympus XA2 publications explain how to troubleshoot and/or calibrate
the sensors to correct this problem? Thanks.  Mark Dottle
