G9 Fans Everywhere Rejoyce!

Ok, now I got your attention, it's time to get down to business.

Enjoy the Exposure Value Meter on the right hand side of the screen (Is that what that's called??) when you use the Manual mode in the G9?? But feel like something is missing when you switched to Av or Tv Mode??

Well, worry no more. You know that * and blue mic icon on the top right corner at the back of your G9? Try pressing that, what do you get?? Although it's not exactly Exposure Value Meter bar like in the manual mode. It does give you the supposedly correct exposure in the number value sliders.

Bonus: Try aiming your camera at other places and press the * button, it will give you the correct exposure value depends on which mode you are in. ie. If you are in Av, it will give you the supposedly correct value for shutter speed (Tv) and vice versa.

Bonus 2: Try it in Manual mode. I find that the f-stop, shutter sliders easier for me to look at and helps me learn their relationship in the mean time.

Note: Do take a note that there are limitations on the G9 as far as the aperture, shutter speed combination goes. In Manual Mode, if you are adjusting the f-stop, the shutter speed only goes from 1/1600 to 15". If the image is still not corrected within the range, it will not tell you or show you anything. However, if you are in either Av or Tv mode, if the correct exposure value is outside of the range, it will display the numbers in red.
