Exposure compensation—Varying the image brightness
In some situations, you may get better results if you manually compensate (adjust)
the exposure value set automatically by the camera. In many cases, bright
subjects (such as snow) will turn out darker than their natural colors. Adjusting
toward + makes these subjects closer to their real shades. For the same reason,
adjust toward – when shooting dark subjects. The exposure can be adjusted in
range of ±5.0 EV. Center weighted averaging metering (
) or spot metering
(
) is recommended for exposure compensation. The EV step interval can be
selected from 1/3EV, 1/2EV or 1EV.
