About Backlight Compensation
Backlight compensation is automatically activated in Intelligent Auto Plus Mode or Intelligent Auto
Mode. Backlight is a condition where a light shines from behind a subject. When there is a backlight,
the subject appears darker and the camera will automatically attempt to correct it by increasing the
brightness of the picture.
