In difficult lighting conditions, you can use the EV (Exposure Value) Com_nsa_ion setting to override the automatic exposure setting that the camera makes.
EV C_mpensafion is useful in backlit scenes involving a person, or in scenesthat contain many light objects (like a white house in the snow) or many dark objects (like a black cat on a dark Background). Scenes containing many light objects or many dark objects could turn out gray without the use of EV Compensation. For a scene with many light objects, increase the EV Compensation to a positive number to produce a Brighter result. For a scene with many dark objects, decrease the EV Compensation to darken the scene to be closer to Black.

If the setting is anything other than the default setting of 0
(zero), the number vaJue will appear at the fop of the Live View
screen.
The new setting remains in effect until it is changed again or until the camera is turned off.
