Backlight is a condition where a light shines from behind a subject. When there is 

a backlight, the subject appears darker and the camera will automatically attempt 

to correct it by increasing the brightness of the picture. Backlight compensation is 

automatically activated in [Intelligent Auto] Mode. When the camera detects backlight, 

 is displayed on the LCD monitor (depending on the backlighting conditions, 

backlighting may not be detected correctly).
