Exposure compensation

When shooting an extremely small subject, if the main subject

contrasts markedly with the background, or if you identify an
extreme condition which might prove difficult for Matrix
metering, we recommend using exposure compensation.

Four exposure compensation methods are available with this camera.

1. Using AE-L (Auto Exposure Lock)

2. Using AF/AE-L (double lock)

3. Using Exposure Compensation
4. Using Manual Exposure

Using AE-L (Auto Exposure Lock)

Set the exposure mode to either P,

S, or A.

Do not set the exposure mode to M

(Manual).

Set the Metering system.

We recommend using Center-Weighted or

Spot Metering.

Center the main subject inside the

viewfinder.

Move in close until the 12mm-diam.
reference circle for Center-Weighted
metering or 5mm-diam. reference circle for

Spot metering is fuliy covered by the
subject.
