EXPOSURE COMPENSATION [ ]
In this mode, you can deliberately make your picture brighter or darker as
desired. Exposure compensation is possible up or down to ±2 EV by 0.5 step.
To make a whitish subject whiter (+2 EV compensation)
To shoot a backlit subject (+1 EV compensation)
To make a blackish subject blacker (2 EV compensation)
To mimic a twilight scene when shooting in daylight (2 EV compensation)
+ Compensation (to make the whole picture lighter)
Whitish subject Backlit subject Snow scene
– Compensation (to make the whole picture darker)
Blackish subject Subject with a black background
Subject in spotlight
Exposure compensation is possible in all modes except the Manual Exposure
mode (M).
While keeping the exposure
compensation button 1 pressed, use the
shift lever 2 to select the exposure
compensation value. The exposure
compensation value is displayed on the
LCD panel only when the exposure
compensation button is pressed.
When the shutter release button is
pressed halfway, lights in the
viewfinder.
In the Exposure Compensation mode, the flash strength will also be
corrected.
When color negative film is used, pictures will be corrected when they are
printed, which makes it difficult to see the effect of exposure compensation.
The shutter speed blinks when the corrected value is out of the exposure
coupling range in the Aperture Preferred Auto mode (“A”). The aperture
setting blinks when the corrected value is out of the exposure coupling range
in the Shutter Speed Preferred Auto mode (“S”). In this case, shooting may
not be possible according to the compensated value although the shutter
releases.
To cancel the Exposure Compensation mode,
set the exposure compensation value back to ±.
