Bright, Dark, and High-Contrast Subjects: Exposure Compensation
To obtain the desired result with certain subject compositions (for example, when large areas of the
frame are very bright, very dark, or contain areas of strong contrast), it may be necessary to alter
exposure from the value suggested by the camera. This can be done using exposure compensation.
Exposure compensation can be set to values between +2.0 EV (overexposure) and –2.0 EV (underex-
posure) in increments of
1 /
3
EV. Press the multi selector up or down while holding the button.
