Exposure compensation can brighten (increased exposure) or darken
(decreased exposure) the standard exposure set by the camera.
Exposure compensation can be set in the <d>, <s>, and <f>
shooting modes. Although you can set the exposure compensation up
to ±5 stops in 1/3-stop increments, the exposure compensation
indicator in the viewfinder and on the LCD panel can only display the
setting up to ±3 stops. If you want to set the exposure compensation
setting beyond ±3 stops, use the Quick Control (p.53) or follow the
instructions for [z2: Expo.comp./AEB] on the next page.
If the <a> mode and the Auto ISO are both set, see page 116 to set
the exposure compensation.
