After performing steps 1 to 5, rotate the command dial to compensate the exposure.

EV is an abbreviation of “Exposure Value”. It refers to the amount of light given to the CCD by the aperture value and the shutter speed.

The set exposure value is memorized even if the camera is turned off.

The compensation range of the exposure will be limited depending on the brightness of the subject.

Rotate the command dial slowly but surely.

You cannot compensate the exposure in manual exposure mode.

Refer to P73 for information about setting a different function to [FUNC.2].
