HP 850 manual Using exposure compensation

Page 28

Using exposure compensation

In difficult lighting conditions, you can use Exposure Compensation to override the automatic exposure setting that the camera makes. Exposure Compensation settings range from -3.0EV (Exposure Value) to reduce the exposure of the image (darkening it), to +3.0 EV to increase the exposure of the image (brightening it).

By default, Exposure Compensation is set to 0 (zero) and no indication is given on the active display. When Live View is turned on and you press

the

buttons on the Controller

,

a meter appears in the middle of the active display, and the Exposure Compensation value is shown on the bottom of the display.

When you have not changed Exposure Compensation for

2 seconds, the meter disappears, but the value remains at the bottom of the screen flanked by arrows (unless it has been set to 0).
