— Exposure Compensation —

Exposure metering can be offset to allow manual compensation for

more creative control of your pictures. Twelve settings are available for

Exposure Compensation, from –2EV to +2EV in 1/3-EV steps.

•The Exposure Compensation indication ≠ is displayed on the Control panel and

both ≠ and the compensation value are shown on the Monitor when the

Exposure Compensation is set.

Check point

The flash output level is also adjusted when the Speedlight is used. To adjust

only the flash output level and leave the exposure metering as determined by

the camera, select Speedlight Opt. > Variable Power in the Shooting SET-UP

menu (p. 133).

The Exposure mode can be selected by pressing the Multi selector

instead of using the MODE button and the Command dial. This option

cannot be selected if MODE is assigned to either the FUNC. 1 or

FUNC. 2 button in the Controls setting (p. 130) in the Shooting SET-UP

menu. See p. 65 for the characteristics of the Exposure modes and

details on using them.
