EXPOSURE COMPENSATION

Changing to 1/3 Increments

1/3EV increment

1/2EV increment

Example below shows changing from 1/2EV to 1/3EV increment.

1.Set the exposure-compensation dial to the edge of the 1/2EV

increment (ie; +/-3.0EV).

2. While pressing the exposure- compensation dial lock-release button, turn the exposure-com- pensation dial to the edge of the 1/3EV increment (ie; +/- 2.0EV).

When going from 1/3EV increment to 1/2EV increment, use the same procedure as described in steps 1 and 2 above.

If you select 1/3EV increment, aperture, shutter speed, and the value on the meter index will change to 1/3EV increment.

If 1/3EV increments are selected, the lens’ maximum/minimum aper- ture may not appear correctly, but the camera will be set correctly.

Meter Index

The meter index displays the exposure compensation value you set.
