I’ve been using Canon bodies for years and the trusty ‘*’ button on the back of the camera body always works. After wading through the custom menu functions, I still couldn’t figure out what was going on. So I hacked my way through the evening using manual exposure compensation.
I pulled out the unopened manual from my Canon 7D box after returning home and discovered that this new body has a new ‘M-Fn’ (multi funtion) button next to the shutter button which takes care of the exposure lock. Who would have known that the button I was looking for all night was literally a few millimetres from my trigger finger!
So the moral of the story is - read through your camera manual. You never know what you might discover about your new gear. And you might just save yourself a few headaches.
