Exposure Compensation
Whenever the P Mode, A Mode, S Mode, or Best Shot Mode
is selected as the exposure mode, you can adjust the expo-
sure compensation value (EV value) within the range shown
below in order to compensate for current lighting conditions.
As a rule of thumb, you should use a positive value to com-
pensate for a bright colored subject and a negative value for
a dark colored subject.
• EV (no EV value displayed) represents optimal camera
setting for best balance of highlight and shadow detail.
EV Value Range: –2EV to +2EV
Steps: 1/3EV
