    • The “Fine” setting helps to bring out details when shooting a finely detailed image 
    of nature that includes dense tree branches or leaves, or an image of a complex 
    pattern.
    • Memory capacity (the number of images you can record) will be affected by the 
    quality settings you configure (page 122).
    Procedure
    [r] (REC) * [SET] * MENU * “Quality” Tab * EV Shift
    You can manually adjust an image’s exposure value (EV value) before shooting it.
    • Exposure Compensation Range: –2.0 EV to +2.0 EV
    • Unit: 1/3 EV
    1.Use [8] and [2] to adjust the exposure compensation value.
    To cancel exposure compensation, change the EV value to 0.0.

    [8] : Increases the EV value. A higher EV 
    value is best for light-colored subjects 
    and backlit subjects.
    [2] : Decreases the EV value. A lower EV 
    value is best for dark-color subjects and 
    for shooting outdoors on a clear day. 
    						
    							62Advanced Settings
    2.Press [SET].
    This applies the exposure compensation value. The exposure compensation 
    value you set remains in effect until you change it or turn off the camera (which 
    causes it to revert to “0.0”).
    NOTE
    • When shooting under very dark or very bright conditions, you may not be able to 
    obtain satisfactory results even after performing exposure compensation.
    Procedure
    [r] (REC) * [SET] * MENU * “Quality” Tab * White Balance
    You can adjust white balance to match the source of light available where you are 
    shooting and avoid the blue cast that results when shooting outdoors when it is 
    cloudy, and the green cast that results when shooting under fluorescent lighting.

    • When “Auto” is selected for the white balance setting, the camera automatically 
    determines the white point of the subject. Certain subject colors and light source 
    conditions can cause problems when the camera tries to determine the white point, 
    which makes proper white balance adjustment impossible. If this happens, select 
    the white balance setting that matches your shooting conditions (Daylight, 
    Overcast, etc.). ManualFor configuring the camera manually to suit a 
    particular light source
    1Select “Manual”.
    2Under the lighting conditions 
    you plan to use when 
    shooting, point the camera at 
    a blank white piece of paper 
    so it fills the entire monitor 
    screen and then press the 
    shutter button.
    3Press [SET].
    The white balance setting is retained even if you 
    turn off the camera.
