Metering in Manual Mode
In the manual mode, the meter index will show you how the exposure you have set
compares with the camera’s meter reading. The + indicator tells you when your expo-
sure is over, the – indicator tells you when your exposure is under. If neither indicator
appears, the camera’s meter reading agrees with the exposure you have set.
Press the shutter-release button partway down to activate the meter.
