Flash Compensation

Select Flash compensation from the Quick settings display to adjust the setting (A 48).
Flash compensation (available only in a, b, c, and d modes) is used to alter flash
output, changing the brightness of the main subject relative to the background. Flash
output can be increased to make the main subject appear brighter, or reduced to prevent
unwanted highlights or reflections.
Flash compensation is shown in the Shooting information display.

Normal flash output can be restored by setting flash compensation to 0.0. Flash exposure
compensation is not reset when the camera is turned off.
Flash compensation is also available with optional SB-400, SB-800, SB-600 (A 150), and
SU-800 flash units (A 150).
