If [z2: Auto Lighting Optimizer] (p.146) is set to any setting other
than [Disable], the image may still look bright even if a decreased flash
exposure compensation is set.
If flash exposure compensation is set with an external Speedlite (sold
separately, p.181), you cannot set the flash exposure compensation with the
camera (Quick Control or External flash function settings). If it is set with both
the camera and Speedlite, the Speedlite’s setting overrides the camera’s.
