Exposure Compensation/Backlight Correction

Images can be captured with the overall scene intentionally made brighter or darker. These settings are

used when a suitable brightness (exposure) cannot otherwise be obtained in circumstances where the

difference in brightness between the subject and the background (the contrast) is large, or when the

subject that you wish to capture is very small within the scene. Exposure can be set in 1/3 EV units.

1. Slide the mode switch to [ ] and set the mode dial to [P], [Tv],

[Av], [ ], [ ] or [ ] and press the button.

Each press of the button displays the setting in the

order of [ ] Backlight Correction and [ ] Exposure

Compensation.

2. Set the exposure value with the S / T buttons.

Press the S button to increase the value.

Press the T button to decrease the value.

The setting range of the exposure compensation is as follows:-2.0, -1.7, -1.3, -1.0, -0.7, -0.3, 0, +0.3,

+0.7, +1.0, +1.3, +1.7, +2.0.

Press the button to confirm the setting.

The larger the value, the brighter the image. The smaller the value, the darker the image. The set

value is displayed on the screen.
