DVANCED OPERATION
EXPOSURE COMPENSATION
Camera exposure can be changed by as much as ±3.0 Ev to make
the final image lighter or darker. For information on Ev, see page 31.
Exposure compensation cannot be used in the manual-exposure
mode.
Press and hold the exposure-
compensation button (1) and turn the
control dial (2) to select the degree of
compensation. This value is displayed
in the aperture display and on the Ev
scale. For more on the Ev scale, see
page 39.
In the program, aperture-priority, and shutter-priority modes, the
degree of compensation set in one mode is applied to the other two;
exposure compensation is not reset when the camera is turned off,
but is reset if the mode dial is turned to the full-auto program or
subject program position. With full-auto program and subject
programs, exposure compensation is reset when the position of the
mode dial is changed.
Once set, the exposure-compensation
indicator shows an increase (+) or
decrease (–) to the metered exposure.
The viewfinder Ev scale displays the
degree of compensation.
