Rotate the rear dial to compensate the exposure.
A Exposure Compensation value
B [EXPO.METER]
The Exposure Compensation value can be set within a range
of j5 EV to i5 EV. When recording motion pictures, the Exposure Compensation
value can be set within a range of j3EV to i3EV.
Select [0] to return to the original exposure.
Rotate the rear dial to display the [EXPO.METER]. (P151) (However, it does not appear
in / Mode.)
Note
When the exposure value is out of the j3EV to i3 EV range, the brightness of the recording
screen will no longer change. It is recommended to record by checking the actual brightness of
the recorded image in the Auto Review or playback screen.
The set exposure value is memorized even if the camera is turned off.
The compensation range of the exposure will be limited depending on the brightness of the
subject.
When the aperture and shutter speed values are displayed in the screen in the Program AE
Mode, Program Shift operation and Exposure Compensation operation is switched every time
the rear dial is pressed.
In the Aperture-Priority AE Mode, Aperture Setting operation (P114) and Exposure
Compensation operation is switched every time the rear dial is pressed.
