Exposure Adjustment

This camera features an program AE function that automati-

cally changes shutter speed and aperture in accordance

with available light. In addition, you can also manually adjust

the exposure to compensate for backlighting, indirect indoor

lighting, dark backgrounds, and other special conditions.

To manually adjust the exposure

Set the Function Switch to REC.

Use [+] and [–] to perform exposure compensa-

tion and display a bar graph on the monitor

screen.

• Pressing [+] makes the image on the LCD brighter.

Use it to adjust for dim indoor lighting and backlight-

ing.

• Pressing [–] makes the image on the LCD darker. Use

it to adjust for bright sunlight.

• The bar graph turns red whenever the compensation

value is at its limit.

NOTES

• Exposure adjustment is generally expressed in terms

of an exposure adjustment value. The exposure ad-

justment value is always set to zero whenever you

turn on the camera.

• The exposure adjustment value is changed by 0.25EV

with each press of [+] or [–]. The range of the value is

–2EV to +2EV.

• The exposure adjustment value automatically reverts

to zero whenever the shutter button is pressed. You

can manually reset the exposure adjustment value by

using [+] and [–] to change the value back to zero,

which is indicated when the bar graph disappears from

the monitor. EV shift is fixed during panorama record-

ing.

• Shutter speed and aperture is fixed whenever an EV

shift setting is made.

IMPORTANT!

• When the exposure adjustment is too bright or too

dark, you may not be able to adjust within the range of

–2EV to +2EV.

• The aperture setting of this camera switches auto-

matically in accordance with available lighting when

an image is recorded. The switching operation causes

the camera to emit a noise. This is normal and does

not indicate malfunction.
