For backlighted subjects, compensate
exposure in a range of "+0.3” ~ "+2".
If you are shooting a portrait in backlight, against a
bright sky or sea, in front of a window, etc., where the
greater part of your picture is occupied by a bright
background, your subject will be underexposed and turn
out dark like a silhouette. In such cases, compensate
exposure in a range of +0.3 ~ +2 EV to increase the
exposure.
For stage scenes, compensate exposure in a
range of "-0.3" ~ "-2".
If you are shooting a spotlighted subject on a stage
where a dark background predominates in the scene,
the main subject will be overexposed and turn out too
light. In this case, compensate exposure in a range of
0.3“ ~ "-2" to reduce the exposure.
