Robert,
I think that you will find that the visible meter needle just shows the
light level as an indicator to show if there is enough light. The 'other end
of the needle' operates the shutter speed. Does it move if you change the
ISO setting?
I think that the compensation operates 'internally' directly on the shutter
speed. I cannot remember without actually looking at mine, but I will check
later and let you know.
There is a manual at:
