EXPOSURE – Setting the ISO Manually
1. Turn the function dial to ISO.
2. Press the function button and
turn the control dial until the
desired ISO value appears in
the data panel.
Set the film speed manually when you want to override the DX-coded
film speed or when using non-DX-coded film. Film speeds can be set
from ISO 6 to 6400 in 1/3EV increments.
Film must be loaded before the ISO can be changed.
Bright scenes such as snow or beach
scenes are often underexposed. Dark
scenes are often overexposed. Exposure
compensation lets you adjust the metered
exposure +/– 3 stops in 1/2 stop
increments.
The metering system in this
camera averages the readings from
each active metering segment to
determine an exposure that will
achieve an average middle grey
tone on the film.
