Exposure Compensation

Exposure compensation is used to alter exposure from the value
suggested by the camera, making pictures brighter or darker. It is
most effective when used with center-weighted or spot metering
(

0 123). Choose from values between –5 EV (underexposure) and

+5 EV (overexposure) in increments of

1

/

3

EV. In general, positive

values make the subject brighter while negative values make it
darker.

To choose a value for
exposure compensation,
press the

E button and

rotate the main
command dial until the
desired value is
displayed in the
viewfinder or top control
panel.
