flash is pulled up. When you adjust it, be careful not to forget to reset the value.
• The positive effect may not be visible due to the limited amount of flash light, if the
subject is at or around the maximum range for the flash. If the subject is very close,
the negative effect may not be visible.
Exposure compensation and flash compensation
Exposure compensation changes the shutter speed, aperture, and ISO sensitivity (when

flash light is also changed.
However, flash compensation only changes the amount of flash light.
