Setting Exposure CompensationN

Exposure compensation is used to alter the standard exposure set by the camera. You can make the image look brighter (increased exposure) or darker (decreased exposure). This feature can be used in the Creative Zone modes (except <a>). The exposure compensation setting will not be automatically canceled when you turn off the camera. After taking the picture, reset the exposure compensation to zero.
