Exposure compensation can brighten (increased exposure) or darken
(decreased exposure) the standard exposure set by the camera.
Exposure compensation can be set in the <
d
>, <
s
>, and <
f
>
shooting modes. Although you can set the exposure compensation up
to ±5 stops in 1/3-stop increments, the exposure compensation
indicator in the viewfinder and on the top LCD panel can only display
the setting up to ±3 stops. If the exposure compensation amount will
exceed ±3 stops, set it with the Quick Control (p.68).
If the <
a
> mode and ISO Auto are both set, see page 237 to set the
exposure compensation.
