[title] Exposure Compensation
[* black] Exposure compensation is an easy way to adjust the camera's shutter speed while using Aperture Priority mode to achieve a brighter or darker image.
-[* black] For a given aperture, a negative EV will set a shorter shutter speed and make the picture darker. A positive EV will keep the shutter open a little longer, allowing in more light and making the picture brighter.
+[* black] For a given aperture, a negative EV sets a shorter shutter speed and makes the picture darker. A positive EV keeps the shutter open a little longer, allowing in more light and making the picture brighter.
[* black] In the example images, the EV setting was changed from ***0*** to ***+1***, which will make all subsequent shots a bit brighter than before. This comes at the expense of a slower shutter speed.
