>The literature that came with the TC-301 said that with the F-5 and
DP-30/EC-B finder/screen (the standard configuration) to use +1 exposure
compensation via Custom setting 18 rather than use the camera's normal
compensation setting.  What difference if any does it make?

The F5's various meters are in different places (body and prism). If you set
general exposure compensation, you impact all the metering modes, if you set
via the custom function, you only impact the metering modes that are in the
prism (and thus affected by the screen).
