Exposure, image and color<br />
Exposure compensation—Varying the image brightness<br />
In some situations, you may get better results if you manually compensate (adjust)<br />
the exposure value set automatically by the camera. In many cases, bright<br />
subjects (such as snow) will turn out darker than their natural colors. Adjusting<br />
toward + makes these subjects closer to their real shades. For the same reason,<br />
adjust toward – when shooting dark subjects. The exposure can be adjusted in<br />
range of ±5.0 EV. Center weighted averaging metering ( ) or spot metering<br />
( ) is recommended for exposure compensation. The EV step interval can be<br />
selected from 1/3EV, 1/2EV or 1EV. ~ “EV STEP” (P. 124)<br />
