Exposure Compensation

Whenever program AE, shutter speed priority AE, or aper-

ture priority AE is selected as the exposure mode, you can

adjust the exposure compensation value (EV value) within

the range shown below in order to compensate for current

lighting conditions. This setting can be used to obtain better

results when shooting with backlighting, indirect indoor light-

ing, a dark background, etc.

EV Value Range: –2EV to +2EV

Steps: 1/3EV

In a recording mode, use [+] and [–] to perform

exposure compensation (EV Shift).

• This causes the exposure compensation value to ap-

pear on the monitor screen.

[+]: Increases the EV value. A higher EV value is best

used for light-colored subjects and backlit subjects.

[–]: Decreases the EV value. A lower EV value is best for

dark-color subjects and for shooting outdoors on a

clear day.

• To return exposure compensation to its standard default

setting, use [+] and [–] to change the setting on the monitor

screen until disappears.
