Adjusting the Exposure
The camcorder determines the optimal exposure of a scene based on
the average brightness of the whole picture. When you want to record
a subject that is much brighter or darker than its surroundings, the
automatic exposure obtained by the camcorder may not be best for
that specific subject.
To correct this, you can compensate the exposure to make the whole
picture brighter or darker, you can use Touch AE to tell the camcorder
to optimize the exposure for a selected subject, or you can use a com-
bination of both.
