Shooting Functions
The camera automatically sets the exposure by measuring the levels of
light from the photo’s composition and the position of a subject. If the
exposure set by the camera is higher or lower than you expected, you can
adjust the exposure value manually. The exposure value is adjustable in ±3
increments. The camera displays the exposure warning in red for each step
beyond ±3 range.
To adjust the exposure value, while holding down [W], scroll the
command dial. You can also adjust the exposure value by pressing [f],
and then selecting EV.
You can check the exposure value by the position of the exposure level
indicator.
