2. INCIDENT-LIGHT
MEASUREMENT
Even with
incident-light metering, it is
possible
to
adjust the displayed reading
to
bias
the
exposure
according to the
photographer's
intentions.
The
following
are
some
situations
where
adjusting the
exposure
value
may be useful:
o
When
the
photographer
wants
to
adjust
exposure
to deliberately
increase or decrease exposure from
the
normal metered value.
.
When
using
a
filter
that
requires
exposure com-
pensation.
o
When using
a
bellows
or close-up ring
photography.
o
When using
the Minolta Booster
ll
Booster.
For
increased exposure:
To deliberately
increase exposure, move
decrease/increase
control while
pressing
the
"H"
until
the
desired change
is indicated.
For
decreased
exposure:
To
deliberately
increase exposure,
move
decrease/increase
control
while
pressing
the
"S"
until
the desired change
is indicated.
