high-contrast object the same distance away as the intended subject, recompose your shot and
then take the picture.
The camera automatically shoots a number of pictures at different exposure values for each
frame. Even in conditions where correct exposure is difficult to obtain (such as a backlit subject
or a scene at dusk), you can pick the picture you prefer from a selected number of frames with
a variety of different exposure settings (exposure and compensation values). The pictures are
taken in the following order: Picture with optimum exposure, picture adjusted in
-
direction, and
picture adjusted in + direction.
