Choose a flash control mode for the built-in and optional flash
units.
Flash compensation alters flash output
from the level suggested by the camera,
changing the brightness of the main sub-
ject relative to the background. Choose
from values between –3 EV (darker) and
+1 EV (brighter) in increments of
1
/
3 EV; in
general, positive values make the subject brighter while nega-
tive values make it darker.
A Y icon is displayed when flash com-
pensation is in effect. Normal flash out-
put can be restored by setting flash
compensation to ±0. Flash compensa-
tion is not reset when the camera is
turned off.
