When you press the shutter button
halfway, the difference between the
standard exposure* and the
selected exposure appears on the
LCD monitor (or viewfinder). If the
difference is more than 2 stops, "-2"
or "+2" appears on the LCD monitor
(or viewfinder) in red.
* The standard exposure is calculated by
measuring the brightness according to
the selected metering method.
If the zoom is adjusted after these values are set, the
aperture value or the shutter speed may change in
accordance with the zoom position.
The brightness of the LCD monitor (or viewfinder) matches
the selected shutter speed and aperture value. When you
select a fast shutter speed or shoot a subject in a dark
place, raise the flash and then set it to
attach an externally mounted flash (p. 172), the image will
always be bright.
