A Exposure
Depending on the scene, exposure may differ from that which would be obtained when live
view is not used.
Metering in live view is adjusted to suit the live view display, producing
photographs with exposure close to what is seen in the monitor.
In P, S, A, M, and % modes,
exposure can be adjusted by ±5 EV (0 86).
Note that the effects of values over +3 EV or
under –3 EV can not be previewed in the monitor.
