∫ The Backlight Compensation
Backlight refers to when light comes from the back of a subject.
In this case, the subject will become dark, so this function compensates the backlight by 
brightening the whole of the picture automatically. 
It is possible to set the focus to the specified subject. Focus will keep following the subject 
automatically even if it moves. Refer to 
P86
 for details.
