As a workaround, someone else has said that you cab get 1/3 compensation
by overriding the ISO. Personally, my metering is not that accurate so
1/2 stop will do for me.
Alternatively, you could go to manual and adjust exposure any way you
see fit. In order to be accurate to 1/3 stop you are presumably using
an external lightmeter and would probably be in manual mode anyway?

But how can you tell if in fact the exposure didn't default to the 1/2
exposure mark when set between detents. Judging by eye would be tough so
you would probably need some method of reading the slide density.
Personally, I like the 1/2 exposure settings. I used the 1/3 setting on
the LX and frequently found that 1/3 was not enough and 2/3 was too
much.
