Using exposure compensation to adjust picture
brightness
Before you take a picture, you can adjust exposure compensation to make pictures
darker or lighter.
■ Press to decrease exposure compensation.
■ Press to increase exposure compensation.
The exposure compensation level is shown on the LCD; the LCD gets brighter or dimmer.
Using the histogram to view picture brightness
Use the histogram to evaluate the distribution of light before or after you take a
picture. Optimal exposure is achieved when the peak is in the middle of the
histogram. The flash may affect a picture’s light and shadow.
To turn on the histogram in Capture mode or in Review, press (Display )
until the histogram appears.
Using the framing grid to compose a picture
The framing grid divides the LCD into thirds—vertically and horizontally. This is
helpful if, for example, you want to balance a picture between water, earth, and sky.
Press (Display ) until the grid appears.
