358 On-Camera Flash Photography
Flash compensation is used to alter flash output by from –3 EV to
+1 EV in increments of
1
/
3 EV, changing the brightness of the
main subject relative to the background. Flash output can be
increased to make the main subject appear brighter, or reduced
to prevent unwanted highlights or reflections. In general,
choose positive values to make the main subject brighter,
negative values to make it darker.
To choose a value for flash
compensation, use the Flash
compensation item in the photo
shooting menu. At values other than
±0.0, a Y icon will appear in the display
and the control panel.
Normal flash output can be restored by setting flash
compensation to ±0.0. Flash compensation is not reset when the
camera is turned off.
