Note

•How the exposure compensation is switched can be changed by [EXPO. SETTINGS] (P108) in the [CUSTOM MENU] menu.

•The brightness of the LCD monitor/Viewfinder and the recorded pictures may differ. Check the pictures on the Playback screen.

•Set the aperture value to a higher number when the subject is too bright in Aperture-priority AE mode. Set the aperture value to a lower number when the subject is too dim.

•When you use a lens with an aperture ring, the setting for the front dial becomes effective if you rotate the aperture ring to the [A] position and the aperture ring setting takes priority if you rotate the aperture ring to a position other than [A] in Aperture-priority AE mode.

•The aperture value and the shutter speed displayed on the screen turn red and blink when the exposure is not adequate.

•We recommend using a tripod when the shutter speed is slow.
