Setting Exposure Compensation

Exposure compensation is used to alter the camera’s standard exposure setting to make the
picture brighter (increased exposure) or darker (decreased exposure). Exposure compensation

can be set up to +/-2 stops, in 1/2-stop increments.

Take the picture.

To prevent the <0> dial from turning inadvertently and changing the exposure

compensation, enter the setting and then set the Quick Control Dial switch to

<OFF>.

In

<M>

(Manual) mode, because you determine the exposure (the combination

of shutter speed and aperture) yourself, the exposure compensation function
does not operate.

You can set the camera so that you can set the exposure compensation amount in

1/3-stop increments. (C.Fn-4-1->-122)
