5. Exposure Compensation
When taking pictures in an AE shooting
mode, you can use the quick control dial to
vary the exposure according to the subject
conditions. Exposure can be compensated
up to +2 stops in 1/2-stop increments.
1) Set the quick control dial switch to 1
2) Focus the subject and confirm the expo-
sure.
3) Turn the quick control dial to set the
desired exposure compensation amount.
* The compensation amountis displayed
in the LCD panel and viewfinder. “+”
compensation overexposes the sub-
ject and “-" compensation underex-
poses it.
After setting the desired compensation
amount, itis a good idea to set the quick
control dial switch to © to prevent ac-
cidental alteration of the setting.
