Hey, 

Is it possible to put the exposure compensation on the front dial?

I would love to switch dials in some situation but I can't find a menu where I can do so. 

 

cheers Peter

In the menu go to: custom control/wheel assignment (AFor MF lens), select P, S or A and the switch exp comp to the front wheel

Hey, 

 

this alters the overall use of the wheels. 

I am pressing a fn button.

And if I press the fn button for exp compensation > I can only change this with the thumbwheel. 

But sometimes it would be faster to do it with the front wheel. 

So I think this can't be changed .... 

 

but Thanxs for reminding me to change these menus .... 

 

cheers Peter

Oh, I thought you wanted to permanently move exp comp to the front dial. I see what you are trying to do now. Yeah, might not be able to change that. What might work is to create a new profile and assign the front wheel to exp comp. You still have to select the profile which might not be any faster depending on how the rest of the camera is set up and what you are doing exactly. I have one of the Fn buttons assigned to profiles as a default, so it would be an easy solution for me. I like using profiles.

I will post this in the app for future updates of the firmware.
