exposure compensation
Exposure compensation is a camera setting that allows you to adjust the brightness of your photographs. When you take a picture, your camera calculates the optimal exposure based on lighting conditions. However, this might not always match your artistic vision. By using exposure compensation, you can intentionally increase or decrease the exposure, making the image brighter or darker. This is helpful in tricky lighting situations where the camera might misinterpret the scene, ensuring you capture the desired mood and detail in your photos.
