Exposure Compensation

The camera's exposure value (EV) can be adjusted from -2.0 to +2.0 EV in
0.5 EV increments while in Capture mode. A +1.0 adjustment in EV, in effect
doubles the amount of light allowed to reach the CCD (charge coupled device) in
your camera. A -1.0 adjustment in EV, halves the amount the light allowed to
reach the CCD in your camera. Below shows how changes in EV can effect
your pictures.
If your pictures are too:
dark—increase (+) the exposure compensation setting
light—decrease (-) the exposure compensation setting
To change Exposure Compensation:
To reset: the Exposure setting automatically resets to 0.0 EV when the camera is
turned off.
