Flash Compensation
Flash compensation is used to deliberately alter flash output, for example in order
to change the brightness of the subject relative to the background. Via the [] item in the photo shooting menu, flash output can be increased to make the main
subject appear brighter, reduced to prevent glare, or otherwise fine-tuned to produce
the desired result.
-
Choose from values of from −3 to +1.
-
By default, changes are made in increments of 1/3 EV. The size of the increments can be changed using Custom Setting b1 [] to 1/2 EV.
-
Higher values make the subject brighter, lower values darker.
-
At values other than ±0.0, a Y icon will appear in the shooting display.
-
Normal flash output can be restored by setting flash compensation to ±0.0. Flash compensation is not reset when the camera is turned off.
