Manual flash exposure correction (EV) can help offset extreme differences in
contrast between the subject and background. Corrections from -3 f-stops (EV)
to +3 f-stops (EV) can be made, in 1/3 increments (also see 11.5).
☞ Flash exposure correction is only activated in the TTL and P-TTL flash
modes if the camera supports this function (see the camera's operating
instructions)! Flash exposure correction is activated in automatic flash
mode A irrespective of the camera model!
