/ Exposure Compensation

To modify exposure control (i.e. from the ISO standard), use the Exposure

Compensation function. This can be useful when intentionally achieving

under or overexposure to obtain a specific photographic effect.

+2 EV compensation

Set Exposure Compensation by rotating

the Command Dial while pressing the @

button until the desired compensation

value appears (-2 EV to +2 EV in 1/2

steps).

• When the Exposure Compensation is set, ^

appears in the LCD panel and viewfinder. The
compensation value can be checked by pressing
the © button. The eiectronic analog exposure
display also appears as illustrated in the viewfinder
when the © button is pressed.

• Normally, you should compensate exposure to the

+ side when the background is brighter than your

main subject, or to the - side when the background
is darker.

Exposure mode with Exposure Compensation

Exposure Compensation can be set in P (Auto-Multi Program), S (Shutter-
Priority Auto), A (Aperture-Priority Auto) and Vari-Program. Once the Exposure

Compensation is set in each P, S or A exposure mode, compensation remains
in that exposure mode. Changing the exposure mode to M, iSi AUTO or Vari-

Program temporarily cancels the compensation. Exposure Compensation set in

Vari-Program is canceled when exposure mode is changed. The Exposure

Compensation cannot be set in iSi AUTO or M exposure mode.

Compose picture, confirm focus

indicator • and shoot.

• To cancel Exposure Compensation, rotate the

the compensation value to D.C. In Vari-Program,

changing the exposure mode also cancels the

Exposure Compensation. (Turning the power switch

off does not cancel the Exposure Compensation.)
