This setting allows you to intentionally lighten or
darken the entire image. Use this setting when the
optimum brightness (exposure) cannot be obtained, for
example, when the brightness between the subject and
the background is not balanced or when the subject to
photograph occupies only an extremely small part of
the screen.
EV BIAS: Press the macro and flash
buttons to adjust the EV from -2.0 to +2.0.

Notes
In “Exposure compensation”, the default value is “0.0EV”. The setting range is as fol-
lows:
-2.0 / -1.6 / -1.3 / -1.0 /- 0.6 / -0.3 / 0 (default) / +0.3 / +0.6/ +1.0 / +1.3 / +1.6 / +2.0
Exposure Compensation cannot be set in mode.
The ideal brightness sometimes cannot be obtained even if a large exposure value is
set in dark photographic conditions. In this case, you can check the brightness in the
preview image directly (photographed still image).
