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. The exposure-

compensation value will remain in effect until it has been reset. Exposure compensation can also be set in the custom 1 section of the recording-mode menu (p. 46). The function

controlled with the left/right keys of the controller can be changed with the menu, see page 46.

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