Hi
when setting my 30D at TV or AV mode, the exposure meter was aways at minus 2/3. I ware unable to bring it up to 0 as it supposes to be. Please help, I need to shoot my grand daughter cheerleading competition to night. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Make sure your on/off switch is set to the line (above 'On'), and turn the rear wheel to adjust EC.

But, for the record, '0' is not where it's 'supposed to be' in terms of exposure ;).

You'll also need to half-press the shutter button to make the rear wheel work. See page 93 of the 30D manual.

Thank you all for you kind responses. Mr.Dough that really does the trick. Please accept our thanks from both my grand-daughter and me.
