EXPOSURE COMPENSATION (160 MODEL ONLY)

high-key subjects

The multi-segment metering can expose for most situations: back lighting, and directly lit snow scenes. However, under certain conditions the meter can be deceived by high-key scenes like white interiors or foggy landscapes. This mode increases the exposure by 1.5 Ev. The flash is disabled.

Press the flash-mode button until the exposure-compensation indicator appears to set the mode.

•The orange flash lamp may blink slowly as a camera- shake warning. Use the flash or place the camera on a tripod.
