a: Manual Exposure Exposure Compensation with Auto ISO If the ISO speed is set to A (AUTO), you can set exposure compensation (p.226) as follows. • [z2: Expo.comp./AEB] • Under [83: Custom Controls], use [s: Expo comp (hold btn, turn )] (p.455) or [p: Expo comp (hold down lever, turn )] (p.455). • Quick Control (p.61) Set the exposure compensation amount while checking the exposure level indicator on the lower part of the viewfinder or on the LCD panel. If Auto ISO is set, the ISO speed setting will change to suit the shutter speed and aperture in order to obtain a standard exposure. Therefore, you may not obtain the desired exposure effect. In such a case, set the exposure compensation. If flash is used when Auto ISO is set, exposure compensation will not be applied even if an exposure compensation amount is set. Under [z2: Auto Lighting Optimizer], if the checkmark for [Disabled in M or B modes] is removed, Auto Lighting Optimizer can be set even in the mode (p.175). When Auto ISO is set, you can press the button to lock the ISO speed. If you press the button and recompose the shot, you can see the exposure level difference on the exposure level indicator compared to when you pressed the button. If exposure compensation (p.226) was applied in , , or mode, and then the shooting mode is switched to with Auto ISO set, the exposure compensation amount already set will be maintained. With Auto ISO set and [81: ISO speed setting increments] set to [1/2stop], any 1/2-stop exposure compensation will be implemented with the ISO speed (1/3 stop) and shutter speed. However, the shutter speed displayed will not change. 223
