FLASH EXPOSURE COMPENSATION

It is possible to compensate the flash output level without changing the background’s exposure.

Press the button after ejecting the flash by using the Flash Pop-up lever. (The Allocate function guide will be displayed on the bottom of

the LCD monitor. The icon and the orange compensation value will be displayed in the upper-left corner of the LCD.)

•It is not possible to set the Flash Exposure Compensation if the built-in flash is in the inserted position.

Select the desired compensation value by using buttons.

•Exposure compensation can be set in 1/3 stop increments from +3.0 to -3.0 stops.

Press the button again to apply the settings. (The color of the compensation value will turn from orange to white and the Allocate function guide will disappear)

CAUTION!!

•The exposure compensation will not disable automatically. After taking the picture, set the compensation value to ±0.0 by above procedure.
