affected by background light.

A subject against backlight is brightened.
 
● Taking pictures of a white beach or snow 
scene
Select [
q Beach & Snow] in the scene mode 
(p. 13).
 
● Taking pictures using exposure 
compensation (p. 25)
Adjust the brightness while viewing the screen 
for taking the picture. Normally, taking pictures 
of white subjects (such as snow) results in 
images that are darker than the actual subject. 
Use the exposure compensation to adjust in 
the positive (+) direction to express whites as 
they appear. When taking pictures of black 
subjects, on the other hand, it is effective to 
adjust in the negative (-) direction.
