[REC] mode:
Compensating the Exposure
Use this function when you cannot achieve appropriate exposure due to the difference in
brightness between the subject and the background. Look at the following examples.
Note
EV is an abbreviation of [Exposure Value]. It refers to the amount of light given to the CCD by
the aperture value and the shutter speed.
The set exposure value is memorised even if the camera is turned off. However, the exposure
value during the Intelligent Auto Mode is not memorised.
The compensation range of the exposure will be limited depending on the brightness of the
subject.
Rotate the rear dial slowly but surely.
When the aperture and shutter speed values are displayed in the screen in the Programme AE
mode, Programme Shift operation and Exposure Compensation operation is switched every
time the rear dial is pressed.
In the Aperture-Priority AE mode, Aperture Setting Operation (P97) and Exposure
Compensation operation is switched every time the rear dial is pressed.
In the Shutter-Priority AE mode, Shutter Speed Setting Operation (P97) and Exposure
Compensation operation is switched every time the rear dial is pressed.
Operation method can be changed with [EXPO. SETTINGS] in the [CUSTOM] menu. (P143)
Exposure compensation can be performed by touching the exposure compensation display,
and then the slide bar in the Quick Menu (P34) while in touch operation.
