Flash Exposure Compensation

You can use Flash Exposure Compensation to adjust the flash's output. Generally, the compensation setting remains enabled until you set it back to zero. The incremental and total amount are a function of your flash. See its instruction manual. If you have a compatible flash installed, you may also adjust the flash output by using the Exposure Compensation function on the camera.

Flash Exposure Bracketing

With Flash Exposure Bracketing, you can capture bracketed images of the same subject at three different flash exposure levels. The order of the bracketed images, the total bracket range, and the bracket increment are controlled by your flash.

See the instructions included with your flash.
