Flash Compensation
Flash compensation is used to
deliberately alter flash output, for
example in order to change the
brightness of the subject relative to the
background. Via the [
Flash
compensation
] item in the photo
shooting menu, flash output can be increased to make the main
subject appear brighter, reduced to prevent glare, or otherwise
fine-tuned to produce the desired result.

Normal flash output can be restored by setting flash
compensation to ±0.0. Flash compensation is not reset when
