[. . . ] Changing the exposure mode to M, 8 AUTO or VariProgram temporarily cancels the compensation. Exposure Compensation set in Vari-Program is canceled when ~, >posure mode is changed. The Exposure Compensation cannot be set in Cj' AUTO or M exposure mode. 2 Compose picture, confirm focus indicator. and shoot. • To cancel Exposure Compensation, rotate the Command Dial while pressing the button to reset the compensation value to D.

For example, this is useful in selecting one shot out of several shots with bracketed exposures after processing the film, when the subject has pronounced contrast in shooting with color slide film and where the latitude of the proper exposure is minimal.

Compensated shutter speed and aperture values are displayed during shooting. • If the Exposure Compensation function (page 61) is also set, bracketing will be combined with the Exposure Compensation values. It is useful to perform Bracketing with a compensated value of over +2 EV or under - 2 EV. • If the end of the film roll is reached during bracketing , the remaining shots can be taken after new film has been loaded . Also, if you turn the power switch off during bracketing, the remaining shots can be taken after the power is turned back on . Second shot (under EV) - - - - ': ': +2. 1. 0. 1. 2- ~ _1.
