Correcting For Back Lighting; Locking The Auto Exposure And Auto Focus Setting; Specifying The [Ae-L/Af-L] Button Operation - Casio EXILIM K860PCM1DMX User Manual

Correcting for Back Lighting

Back lighting correction compensates for the overexposure
that can occur when shooting a backlit subject. Press Æ

correction on and off.
• When a main subject is overexposed due to backlighting,
the camera uses EV shift exposure correction and dynamic
range correction to adjust appropriately.
