EXPOSURE COMPENSATION
If you want to intentionally overexpose or underexpose the picture, use this
function.
While pressing the Exposure Compensation
button, turn the “C”-dial to set the desired
compensation value. Then, release the
Exposure Compensation button.
■
The LCD panel will show “ 0.0” when you initially press the exposure
compensation button. The “
” indicates overexposure, and “ ” indicates
underexposure.
■ Exposure compensation can be set in 1/3EV increments from +3.0 to –3.0 stops.
■ For example, if you set +1.0 then the shutter speed will be one stop slower in
Aperture Priority mode. In Shutter Speed Priority mode, the aperture will be
one-stop larger (smaller F-number). In the case of Program mode, the shutter
speed will be 0.5 stop slower and the aperture will increase 0.5 stop.
CAUTION !!
• Once you set the Exposure Compensation, the camera will continuously hold this
mode, until the compensation amount is set to
0.0 value.
• Exposure compensation function cannot be used with Manual Operation mode.
