EXPOSURE COMPENSATION

The camera exposure can be adjusted to make the final picture lighter or darker by as much as ±2Ev in 1/3 increments with still image and movie recording. When auto reset (P. 55) is active, exposure compensation is reset to ±0 when the camera is turned off. Exposure compensation is set in the main menu of the recording

mode (p. 36) or the movie-recording mode (p. 61). The exposure-compensation function can be assigned to the controller with controller customization (P. 54).

The exposure compensation must be set before the image is cap- tured. When setting the exposure compensation, the amount of compensation is shown next to the exposure-compensation indicator on the monitor. When set to any value other than 0.0, the exposure-compensation indicator will be displayed on the LCD monitor as a warning.

Move the controller up and down to adjust the exposure -compensation value.

The LCD monitor will display the exposure-compensation indicator and the degree of compensation. The change in exposure is visible in the live image.
