EXPOSURE COMPENSATION ADJUSTMENTS
Some exposure correction may be necessary when cer- tain types of films are used for copying or photomicro- graphy applications; the amount of correction required, however, will depend on the type of film and the spe- cific application. The following table lists the exposure corrections in f/stops required for various film/shooting requirements. Compensation is possible by adjusting the shutter speed or the aperture by the indicated amount; also, compensation is possible by adjusting the special ring provided for this purpose. To adjust the exposure compensation ring, simply lift and turn it until the index mark is aligned with the value corresponding to the amount of compensation. In the example shown, the index is set to the +1 position, as required when performing photomicrography using Panchromatic film.
Caution: When performing general photography with the EL2, always make sure that the exposure compensation ring is set to the " 0 " position; if not, incorrect exposure will occur.
