Using a Flash
When a flash is used, exposure compensation affects both flash level
and exposure, altering the brightness of both the main subject and the
background. Custom Setting e4 (Exposure comp. for flash, 0 259) can
be used to restrict the effects of exposure compensation to the
background only.
