Exposure Compensation

In this camera, the exposure (a combination of the aperture and

parts in the frame, the desired subject may be too dark or too light in
the resulting photo.
The exposure compensation function adjusts for this.
Touch [ + ] or [ ] to increase or decrease the compensation value in steps of 1. The maximum
compenstion value is +3, the minimum is -1.5. The default setting is 0. The types of subject for
effective function and the effective setting values are as shown below.
