Fine-Tuning Exposure
Exposure can be fine-tuned separately for each Custom Settings bank and
is not affected by two-button resets. Note that as the exposure
compensation (
E) icon is not displayed, the only way to determine how
much exposure has been altered is to view the amount in the fine-tuning
menu. Exposure compensation (pg. 132) is preferred in most situations.
