In some situations, you may get better results if you manually compensate (adjust) the
exposure value set automatically by the camera. In many cases, bright subjects (such as snow)
will turn out darker than their natural colors. Adjusting toward + makes these subjects closer to
their real shades. For the same reason, adjust toward – when shooting dark subjects. The
exposure can be adjusted in a range of ±5.0 EV.
• The exposure compensation indicator is displayed. The exposure compensation indicator will not be
displayed when the exposure is compensated by 0.
• If the exposure compensation value exceeds the scale of the exposure compensation indicator, the
indicator will blink in the viewfinder and on the control panel. A red vw is displayed on the left and
right edges of the indicator on the super control panel.
