Olympus C-200 ZOOM - Correcting Image Brightness (Exposure Compensation)

76
Correcting Image Brightness
(Exposure Compensation)
Exposure is adjusted automatically whenever a picture is taken. The
camera can, however, be set for shorter or longer exposure in five
increments from –2.0 to +2.0 (increased/decreased by 0.5).
If automatic exposure is used, subjects containing a lot of white will
appear darker, while subjects containing a lot of black will appear
lighter. Adjusting the exposure up (+) for white subjects or down (–) for
black subjects will make them appear lighter or darker, respectively, in
the resulting picture.
For operating instructions see “Using the Shooting Menu” (p.72).
