Shooting techniques

automatic exposure adjustments. Check the
image to be shot, if it looks like the image
below, you should make manual adjustments.
If you are shooting a back-lit person or a
snowy scene, make your adjustments in the +
plus direction; if you are shooting a dark
subject that fills the screen, making your
adjustments in the – direction should give the
best results.
