OTHER RECORDING FUNCTIONS

To cancel EV Shift, adjust the value until it becomes 0.0.

4.Press the shutter button to record the image.

IMPORTANT!

When shooting under very dark or very bright conditions, you may not be able to obtain satisfactory results even after performing exposure compensation.

NOTE

Performing an EV shift operation while using multi- pattern metering (page 126) will cause the metering mode to switch automatically to center weighted metering. Returning the EV shift value to 0.0 causes the metering mode to change back to multi-pattern metering.

You can use key customization (page 120) to

configure the camera to perform exposure compensation whenever you press [￿] or [￿] while in a REC mode. This comes in handy when adjusting exposure compensation while viewing the on-screen histogram (page 117).

Adjusting White Balance

The wavelengths of the light produced by various light sources (daylight, light bulb, etc.) can affect the color of a subject when it is recorded. White balance lets you make adjustments to compensate for different lighting types, so the colors of an image appear more natural.

1.In a REC mode, press [MENU].

2.Select the “Quality” tab, select “White

Balance”, and then press [￿].
