Exposure Compensation
The camera automatically adjusts exposure for the sub-
ject in the center of the frame, producing optimal expo-
sure even when the subject is backlit. Exposure compen-
sation may however be required in situations such as the
following:
Very bright backlighting: Subjects that are very strongly
backlit may be underexposed. Try increasing exposure
compensation.
The frame is dominated by very bright objects: The subject may
be underexposed. Try increasing exposure compensa-
tion.
The frame is mostly dark (for example, a spotlit subject on a
darkened stage): The subject may be overexposed. Try
reducing exposure compensation.
Exposure compensation can be adjusted from the shoot-
ing menu or using the ADJ. lever.
