I’m loving the Control Ring as EC! When shooting birds with my 100-400, my zoom is generally fixed at 400mm. I pan around my shots and continuously adjust EC as the background changes from sky to water to foliage. It has already become second nature, and the improved EC accuracy I’m getting is manifesting as lower effective ISOs, as I have to adjust in PP less when I get caught out with a background change.
The feature is especially helpful if you shoot in M like I generally do. Front wheel is aperture. Back wheel is shutter speed. Control Ring is EC. ISO is auto.
I kinda don’t like shooting my 500PF anymore cause this feature is so handy for birds.
I find it useful for other subjects too. I just wish I could set it to FEC for macro photography.
Yep, this is how I shoot as well. Add the live histogram and dialing in correct exposure is really easy.
On the note of the live histogram, am I needing to dig in further to put it on the regular VF info / readout or it is just on the virtual horizon option now?
I have not found a way to only have the histogram and not the virtual horizon. But I have not searched.
Found it, Custom Function D18 for VF and D17 for monitor. You right click the set button on each primary option to toggle the details, histogram is one of them.
