22 EXPOSURE COMPENSATION

1. Manual Exposure

After setting the desired shutter speed, turn the aperture ring until the aperture needle aligns with the meter needle. You can now over- or underexpose the subject in one-half f/stop increments simply by turning the aperture ring to a larger or smaller aperture. Note that the diameter of the aperture needle’s circle is equivalent to one f/stop. This method of exposure correction is useful, for example, when shooting a subject with strong backlight.
