NOTE

When you set the exposure mode to

Action

,

Landscape

,

or

Portrait

, the

ISO Speed

menu option

is grayed-out in the

Capture

menu, and the camera

automatically selects the best

ISO Speed

setting.

NOTE

If you set the exposure mode to

Action

and release

and then re-press the

Shutter

button all the way down

within 2 seconds after taking a picture, the camera takes
the next picture using the same focus and exposure
measurements as the previous picture. This allows you to
take multiple pictures in rapid succession without having to
wait for the camera to measure focus and exposure for
each picture.

Using exposure compensation

In difficult lighting conditions, you can use

Exposure

Compensation

to override the automatic exposure setting that

the camera makes.

Exposure Compensation

settings range

from

-3.0

EV (Exposure Value) to reduce the exposure of the

image (darkening it), to

+3.0

EV to increase the exposure of

the image (brightening it).

By default,

Exposure Compensation

is set to

0

(zero) and no indication is

given on the Image Display. When

Live View

is turned on and you press

the

buttons, a meter appears in

the middle of the Image Display,
and the

Exposure Compensation

value is shown on the bottom of
the display.
