TIPS
Often bright subjects (such as snow) will turn out darker than their natural
colors. Adjust toward + to make these subjects closer to their real shades. For
the same reason, adjust toward – when taking dark subjects.
In some situations, you may get better results when the exposure that the
camera sets is compensated (adjusted) manually.
Note
If the flash is used, the image brightness (exposure) may differ from the
intended brightness.
Exposure compensation cannot correct the image if the surroundings of the
subject are extremely bright or dark.
