-lEV
Exposure compensation
is
used
to
alter exposure by up
to
±5
EV
in
increments
of
1/
3
EV,
mak-
ing pictures brighter or darker. It
is
available only in
P,
S,
A,
and M modes and
is
most effec-
tive when used
with
center-weighted or spot metering
(~45).
As
a rule
of
thumb, positive
compensation may be needed when
the
main subject
is
darker than the background, neg-
ative values
when
the main subject
is
brighter than the background.
Exposure compensation
is
shown
in
the shooting information dis-
III
play. Normal exposure
can
be restored by setting exposure com-
pensation
to
±O.
Exposure compensation
is
not
reset when the
camera
is
turned off.

The
6
Button
Exposure compensation
can
also
be adjusted by pressing the 6
button
and rotating
the
command dial until
the
desired value
is
shown in
the
viewfinder
or
shooting information display
(P,
5/
and A modes only). The
viewfinder display
is
illustrated at right.
