A Mode M
In mode M, exposure compensation affects only the exposure indicator; shutter speed and
aperture do not change.
A Using a Flash
When a flash is used, exposure compensation affects both flash level and exposure, altering
the brightness of both the main subject and the background. Custom Setting e4 (Exposure
comp. for flash, 0 250) can be used to restrict the effects of exposure compensation to the
background only.
