pressed while the motor drive is

used at "Hi".

EXPOSURE-ADJUSTMENT CONTROL

To deliberately increase or de-

crease exposure from the normal

metered value, turn the exposure-

adjustment control while pressing

the lock release until the desired

position is aligned with the index.

Set minus (—) numbers to darken

exposure and plus (+) numbers to

lighten exposure, as indicated in the

table.

NOTES

• The control will lock at "0" and

each half-stop setting, though set-

tings between half stops can also be

used.

• When the control is not at "0",

"0" after using exposure-adjust-

ment settings.

are changed by exposure adjustment

in P mode; in A mode, only shutter

speed is adjusted.
