Exposure Compensation
In P, S, A, h, and % modes, exposure compensation is used to
alter exposure from the value suggested by the camera, making
pictures brighter or darker (0 116).
In general, positive values
make the subject brighter while negative values make it darker.
To choose a value for exposure compensation, keep the E (N)
button pressed and rotate the command dial until the desired
value is selected in the viewfinder or information display.
