High-Contrast Lighting
When there is a substantial difference in brightness between
the main subject and the background, seemingly unimpor-
tant bright spots or dark spots can adversely influence the
finder reading and thus affect the actual exposu ret
To compensate for an excessively bright (or dark) back-
ground, target the main subject in the center of the focusing
screen, then perform metering (i.e., determine the degree of
exposure you want) by making the necessary shutter speed
and/or lens aperture adjustments.
•Metering with a bright area in the center will
causeunderexposure of the main subject.
After completing this procedure, make your final picturt com-
position and shoot without readjustingeithershutte’ speed or
lens aperture. When shooting landscapes, fo’ example, it is
often advisable to aim your camera slightly downwards while
metering to eliminate the effects of bright expanse (i.e., the
sky); without such compen sation, the landscape may appear
underexposed in the final print. Also, for backlit subjects, it
may be necessary to move closer to ensure proper exposure
measurement
•For correct exposure, first measure the main subject then,
recompose and shoot.
