Exposure Compensation
Exposure compensation is used to deliberately change exposure from the
optimum value as determined by the camera. This can be used, for example,
to shoot subjects containing sharp lighting contrasts at a variety of different
exposures. Exposure compensation is possible in any exposure mode.

At values other than 0, a indicator appears in the viewfinder and in the

compensation when your principal subject is darker than the background, and a
negative value when the subject is brighter than the background.
