ABOUT EXPOSURE COMPENSATION
The exposure compensation allows you to deliberately
overexposure (brighten) or underexposure(darken) a sub-
ject, or compensate for difficult lighting conditions which
may fool the camera's built-in exposure meter.
• Exposure compensation does not work in the Metered manual mode
and Bulb Exposure Mode.

is used, no approximate aperture indica-
tion will appear in the viewfinder.

camera shake.
Exposure Warning
If the subject is too bright or too dark,
both shutter speed, aperture setting
and [ ]/[ ]will blink in the viewfinder
as a warning as shown. It means that
the exposure is out of metering range,
unable to obtain a correct exposure
even if the aperture is adjusted. Select
a darker subject or use a flash if it is
too dark.
USING THE BULB EXPOSURE MODE
This mode is useful for the long exposures required for
shooting night scenes and fireworks. The shutter remains
open as long as the shutter release button is held down.
qWith the Metered-Manual Mode set,
move the select lever to change the
shutter speed until [ Bu ] appears in
the viewfinder and on the LCD panel.
