XF Camera System | Exposure Compensation

Exposure Compensation

The Exposure Compensation function is available primarily for

the automatic exposure modes (Av, Tv, and P), but it can also

be used in Manual exposure mode. Compensation can be set

from -5 to +5 EV in either 1/3, 1/2 or 1 EV increments. By de-

fault, exposure compensation is applied in 1/3 EV increments.

Apply Exposure Compensation

Exposure Compensation can be selected from the camera’s

top-screen by tapping the Exposure Compensation scale and

scroll through the value (EV value) using the rear or side dials.

If, for some reason you want to avoid using touch, an alterna-

tive method can be applied using Keys and Dials:

1. Press and release the Front Key on the XF top. This will

highlight the last chosen feature in the control panel dis-

played on the top touch-screen.

2. Rotate the Front Dial to scroll through the Function icons

on the control panel. Note, each function selected is high-

lighted in-turn and remains active for 3 seconds.

3. Select the Exposure Compensation function, and scroll

using the Rear or Side Dial to increase or decrease the

setting. The EV value applied is displayed on the Top

Touch Screen and in the viewﬁnder display and remains

ﬁxed, regardless of the number of captures. To remove

any exposure compensation applied, access the function

again and set the value to 0 (zero).
