Except for recording mode M, the exposure is automatically acquired. 
(Automatic exposure)
Based on the exposure acquired by the automatic exposure, you can 
perform exposure compensation by shifting the exposure to either the + 
side or the – side, depending on your preference. You can make the entire 
image brighter by shifting to the + side. The entire image becomes darker 
when you shift it to the – side.
