Setting the EV adjust
The EV adjust menu enables you to set the amount of light that
enters the camera while taking the picture. The EV compensation is
expressed as a single number that is used by the digital camera to
calculate the correct combination of aperture and shutter speed for
producing optimum quality pictures. Setting a higher EV compen-
sation value will over-expose a shot while setting a lower value will
under-expose a shot. Exposure can be adjusted from –2.0 to +2.0.
The value is shown on the LCD display. To change the EV compen-
sation value, do the following:
1. Turn on the camera and switch to picture mode.
2. Press Menu.
3. Move the 5-way button left or right to
navigate to the Capture menu.
4. Move the 5-way button up or down to
highlight the EV adjust submenu.
5. Move the 5-way button right to open
the EV adjust submenu.
6. Move the 5-way button up or down to
adjust the EV value between -2.0
through +2.0. Select Normal for the
default value.
7. Press OK when finished.
