Indoor backlit subjects
If the main subject is indoors in front of a bright window, underexposure may occur even it the subject occupies a large portion of the picture area because the difference in contrast between subject and background is too great for the camera to handle And even with centerweighted metering. the results may not be acceptable when shooting on automatic. The best solution is to switch to the manual mode (in which centerweighted metering is always in operation) and make manual exposure compensation as explained on page 52. As an alternative use an electronic flash to obtain correct exposure for the main subject.
