EXPOSURE COMPENSATION DIAL REMEMBER to set the dial at "1x' for normal exposure. The scale (4x, 2x, 1x, 1/2x, 1/4x) indicates the exposure factor. You will obtain "normal" exposure at lx, while 1/2x and 1/4x automatically program the camera to deliver one half and one fourth the amount of light to the film. The 2x and 4x settings automatically double and quadruple the light reaching the film. lz Use this control only when necessary to give intentional over or underexposures while operating on "AUTO". For example, set the dial at 4x or 2x when shooting against the light, and at 1/4x or 1/2x when shooting against dark backgrounds. In addition, the dial can be set between the indicated positions to achieve more specific exposure control. ; "b. am 12.
