Varying the image brightness (Exposure compensation)

This function allows you to make fine changes to the automatic exposure
setting. In some situations, you may get better results when the exposure that
the camera sets is compensated (adjusted) manually. You can adjust the
brightness in the range of ±2.0 in 0.5 steps.
Often bright subjects (such as snow) will turn out darker than their natural
colors. Adjusting towards [ + ] makes these subjects closer to their real
shades. For the same reason, adjust towards [ - ] when shooting dark
subjects.
