b7: Fine-Tune Optimal Exposure G button ➜ A Custom Settings menu Use this option to fine-tune the exposure value selected by the camera. Exposure can be fine-tuned separately for each metering method by from +1 to -1 EV in steps of 1/6 EV. D Fine-Tuning Exposure Exposure can be fine-tuned separately for each Custom Settings bank and is not affected by two-button resets. Note that as the exposure compensation (E) icon is not displayed, the only way to determine how much exposure has been altered is to view the amount in the finetuning menu. Exposure compensation (0 130) is preferred in most situations. 318
