EV

Your camera adjusts the exposure each scene automatically. However, when the subject is too dark or too bright, the

camera adjusts the brightness or darker. This is called EV compensation.

The EV compensation of your camera can be adjusted from [-2.0 EV] to [+2.0 EV] (0.5 EV step).

To adjust EV, press the

S / T button and press the OK button to confirm.
