Focusing screen compensation
No compensation is required with type B or E focusing screens or in Matrix metering.
With screens other than type B or E, the EV level of the focusing screen may require
compensation depending upon the focusing screen, lens, or teleconverter attached.
To compensate EV level, set “Other screen” in Custom Setting “b6 Screen comp.”
(x 98). (For the appropriate compensation value, see the instruction manual of the
focusing screen.)
• For focusing screens other than B- or E-type, “Other screen” must be set even
when the compensation value is “0”.
