Selected Area: The new setting is applied to the
Live View image each time Up/Down naviga-
tion buttons are pressed. Press the OK button to return to the Capture menu
and save the current setting, which will take effect until it is changed again.
EV Compensation
The EV Compensation menu allows you to adjust
the exposure or amount of light that enters the
lens while capturing photos or videos. Use this fea-
ture to lighten or darken the image when the
brightness between the subject and background is
not balanced or when the subject occupies only a
small part of the photograph. Use a positive (+) EV
compensation for spotlit subjects, especially
against dark backgrounds or scenes with low
reflectivity, such as green or dark foliage.
Use the Up/Down navigation buttons to modify the value. This setting can be
modified from -2.0 to +2.0 in a 0.3 increment/decrement.
