The Backlight Compensation

When there is a backlight, the subject appears darker and the camera will automatically attempt to correct it by increasing the brightness of the picture.

In Intelligent Auto Mode, backlight compensation works automatically.

(Depending on the backlighting conditions, backlighting may not be detected correctly.)
