Varying The Image Brightness (Exposure Compensation) - Olympus C-450 Zoom Reference Manual

Varying the image brightness (Exposure compensation)

This function allows you to make fine changes to the automatic exposure
setting. In some situations, you may get better results when the exposure that
the camera sets is compensated (adjusted) manually. You can adjust the
brightness in the range of ±2.0 in 0.5 steps.
When the setting is changed, you can check the result on the monitor.
