Exposure compensation can brighten (increased exposure) or darken
(decreased exposure) the standard exposure set by the camera.
Exposure compensation can be set in the
d/s/f
shooting modes. Although
you can set the exposure compensation up to ±5 stops in 1/3-stop increments,
the exposure compensation indicator in the viewfinder and on the top LCD panel
can only display the setting up to ±3 stops. If the exposure compensation amount
exceeds ±3 stops, setting it with the Quick Control (p.51) is recommended.
If both the <
a
> mode and Auto ISO are set, see page 178 to set the exposure
compensation.
1
Check the exposure.
Press the shutter button halfway
(9)
and check the exposure level indicator.
2
Set the exposure compensation amount.
While looking at the viewfinder or top
LCD panel, turn the <5> dial.
If you cannot set the exposure
compensation, set the power switch
to <1>, then turn the <5> dial.
X When exposure compensation is set,
the <y> icon will be displayed in the
viewfinder.
To cancel exposure compensation, set the
exposure level indicator
< /N>
to the
standard exposure index (<

C

If [z2: Auto Lighting Optimizer]
(p.152) is not set to
[Disable]
, the image
may still look bright even if a darker exposure compensation amount was set.
The exposure compensation amount will remain in effect even after you
set the power switch to <2>.
After setting the exposure compensation amount, you can set the power switch to
<
R
>
to prevent the exposure compensation amount from changing accidentally.
If the exposure compensation amount exceeds ±3 stops, the end of the
exposure level indicator will display <I/> or <J/>.
You can also set it by pressing the <
O
> button and turning the <
6
> or <
