3.16 EV Bias
EV (exposure value) bias enables you to lighten or darken an image. Use this setting when the
brightness between the subject and the background is not balanced or when the subject
occupies only a small part of the photograph.
Use a positive (+) EV bias for:
• printed text (black type on white background)
• backlit portraits
• very bright scenes (such as snow) and highly reflective subjects (such as polished metal)
• shots made up predominantly of sky
Use a negative (-) EV bias for:
• spotlit subject, especially against dark backgrounds
• scenes with low reflectivity, such as green or dark foliage
The DC E40 supports the following EV values: -2.0, -1.6, -1.3, -1.0, -0.6, -0.3, 0.0, 0.3, 0.6, 1.0,
1.3, 1.6, and 2.0.
