EXPOSURE ADJUSTMENT SYSTEM
According to shooting conditions, the camera may be affected more by the background light than the light of the subject itselt. This will result in under (Or over) exposed pictures.
In these cases, you should use the Exposure Adjustment system.
You can also use the system when you wish to create a deliberate effect of over (Or under) exposure.
1. Turn the Film Exposure Compensation Dial to set the required number against the Exposure Compensation Index Line. (Fig. 31)
Subject Exposure Adjustment
Scenery with a lot of sky
Figure against the light
+1 - +2
Figure with a snowacape or seascape background +1
Spot-lighted figure -1 - -2

* The Exposure Compensation Dial can be set to click stop positions (1/3 steps) between the numbers indicated.

* Be sure to set it back to the 0 position after use.
