6.How to use the Exposure compensation function
Exposure compensation can be made in precise 1/10 step increments in a +/- 9.9 EV range. Exposure compensation may be necessary when compensation for filters, bellows, extension tube, etc is required.
1.Set the measurement mode (incident light, reflected light) for the desired compensation. You can make calibration compensation independently for both incident, and reflected light. It is not possible to switch between measurement modes if the setting is not completed.
2. Making a plus compensation will increase the exposure. Hold the ISO1 button ⑪ and the ISO 2 button ⑥ and turn the Jog wheel ⑤ counter clockwise. The 
will appear in the upper section of the LCD screen. The compensation will change in +0.1 EV steps up to +9.9.
3. Making a minus compensation will decrease the exposure. Hold the ISO1 button and the ISO 2 button and turn the Jog wheel clockwise.
The 
will appear in the upper section of the LCD screen. The compensation will change in
NOTE:
•When making compensations, be sure that it satisfies your needs based on the results of your digital camera sensor or film be used.
•While incident and reflected light can be set independently, be aware that both ambient light and flash exposure are corrected uniformly.
•Compensation effects every mode of the meter.
If recalibration has been made for specific purpose do not forget to return to original zero settings.
Reference:
•When compensation is activate, a plus (
) or minus (
) sign as well as the amount of compensation is displayed continuously on the LCD. You can set custom settings so that
a plus (
) or minus (
) sign as well as the amount of compensation doesn’t appear on the LCD. (See page 40)
•You can also set custom setting so that making a plus compensation results in a decreased exposure (increasing the value of the aperture or shutter speed value) and making a minus compensation results in and increased exposure (decreasing the value of the aperture or shutter speed).
