The exposure compensation function, for both manual and
automatic modes can be set from -5 to +5 EV, in 1/3, 1 or 1/2 EV
increments (Custom Option #3) and is visible above the scale in
the viewfinder and as a ± symbol on the grip display.
The quickest way to make an adjustment in auto-exposure mode
is use the rear control wheel.
To make a temporary compensation setting in an auto-
exposure mode using the Quick Adjust function:
a) Select chosen auto exposure mode.
b) Turn the rear control wheel to select the chosen amount of
compensation.
The amount is displayed in the viewfinder as both an EV
figure complete with a ‘minus’ or ‘plus’ prefix and as a marker
above a ‘minus’ to ‘plus’ scale.
Default settings provide 1/3 EV compensation and an immediate
clearing of the setting after capture.
However, in Custom Options #3 you can select 1/3, 1 or 1/2 EV
increment changes, in Custom Options #23 you can choose to
retain the setting after capture and in Custom Options #17 you
can deactivate the function.
To make a fixed exposure compensation setting, proceed as
follows with the camera in active mode:
1) Press the +/- button on the viewfinder.
2) Turn either the front or rear control wheels to increase or
decrease the amount of compensation in 1/3 EV steps.
3) The amount is displayed in the viewfinder as both an EV
figure complete with a ‘minus’ or ‘plus’ prefix (A in illustra-
tion), and as a marker above a ‘minus’ to ‘plus’ scale (B in
illustration).
4) Press Clr (AF button) to reset any compensation back to zero.
5) Press Save (ISO / WB button) to retain the setting.
6) A ‘±’ symbol is then displayed between the aperture and shut-
ter speed setting as confirmation of the setting.
Custom Options #3, #17 and
#23 used to deactivate and

control wheel/Quick Adjust
function.
