Set the desired exposure (using the shutter speed setting wheel
or the aperture setting wheel on the lens).
• In Live View mode this is done with the help of the mark on
the light balance in the footer of the screen image.
• When the rangefi nder is used, this is done with the help of a
light balance consisting of three LEDs.
As well as the direction of rotation of the shutter speed setting
wheel and aperture setting ring necessary for correct exposure,
the three LEDs of the light balance also indicate underexposure,
overexposure and correct exposure as follows:
Underexposure by at least one aperture stop;
turn to the right
Underexposure by a 1/2 aperture stop;
turn to the right
Correct exposure
Overexposure by a 1⁄2 aperture stop;
turn to the left
Overexposure by at least one aperture stop;
turning to the left is required
Notes
• The shutter speed setting wheel must be clicked to one of the
engraved exposure shutter speeds or to one of the intermediate
values.
• The remaining exposure time after shutter release is counted
down in seconds on the display for shutter speeds greater than
2 s.
