White Balance

The light source can affect how the camera

reproduces color. Normally, the camera uses a

white portion of the composed picture as a

base to reproduce other colors, but if the

picture does not contain white, or if you are

shooting under artificial lights (especially

fluorescent lights), you may need to adjust the

white balance to achieve the most natural color

reproduction in your pictures. White balance

can be adjusted three ways.

• Auto white balance. The camera performs

balance color automatically using a white

portion of the composed picture as a

reference. Press and hold down the white

balance mode button , turn the main dial or

sub dial until you see -A- in the viewfinder and

control panel, or AUTO WB in the monitor,

and then take the picture.

• Quick reference white balance. Under the

same light source where you intend to take

the picture, point the camera at a white

surface (wall, sheet of paper, etc.), fill the

viewfinder with the white surface, and then

press the quick reference white balance

button on the front of the camera. When

you see GOOD displayed in the monitor,

press the button to save the setting, and

then take the picture. If you see NO GOOD,

this means that not enough white surface was

available, the white surface reflected too

much light, or color around the corners of the

sheet interfered with the registration.

• Preset white balance. Hold down the white

balance mode button , and then turn the

main dial or sub dial until you see the desired

color temperature setting, and then release

the button. Select AUTO, a color

temperature setting in the range 3000K to

7500K, or Quick Reference.

To focus manually

Set the focus mode switch to MF (Manual

Focus). Turn the manual focus ring until you

see the subject focused in the viewfinder or the

monitor. The image in the monitor is double-

size to make focusing easier, and the camera-

to-subject distance is displayed in the lower

part of the monitor.

Exposure Compensation

Use exposure compensation to manually

increase or decrease the exposure setting

automatically selected by the camera to create

a brighter or darker image. Set the mode dial to

P, A or S. Hold down the exposure

compensation button , and then turn the

main dial or sub dial to select the exposure.

Exposure compensation can be adjusted in the

range of ±3EV in 1/3EV steps. You can confirm

changes in brightness in the range ±2EV on the

monitor.

AE Lock

Point the camera at the subject, press the

automatic exposure lock button , half-

press the shutter button to focus the subject

automatically, and then full-press to take the

picture. The exposure setting will not change as

long as the button is depressed so you

can continue to shoot with the same exposure

setting.

Bracketing Shots

You can set the camera to automatically

bracket a shot with three different exposure

settings at 1/3EV, 2/3EV or 1EV full exposure

step for each shot.

Changing ISO

The ISO setting is equivalent to the ISO

settings performed with traditional SLR

cameras that employ film.
