Compensating the Exposure
Exposure compensation prevents underexposure or overexposure when
shooting white or black subjects. Use it when the exposure is insufficient,
such as for backlit subjects. It can also be used to intentionally overexpose
shots (for bright photos) or underexpose shots (for dark photos).
1 Turn the exposure compensation
dial to the desired setting.
Compensation is available in a range of
±2.0 EV in 1/3 EV steps.
Caution --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
• Exposure compensation is disabled in the shooting mode .
