[QUOTE="djmodifyd, post: 167652, member: 15371"] Hi all, new here. I've done some searching with no luck. My question is this, in A mode with a set ISO.... I'm confused about the EV meter and the information its displaying. Say I'm in a darker room, the EV meter will show up all the way to the right (which as I understand is saying that there is not enough light and my picture will show up under exposed). What I'm confused about is, if I change nothing but Exposure compensation, the only way to get the exposure meter to move back to the middle is to put in NEGATIVE exposure comp...which makes no sense to me. My camera is wanting me to darken the picure that it is already saying is too dark? I hope that question made sense...I am in the understanding that if the meter is showing the picture would be dark, and adding positive exposure comp (or +1 or 2 or 3) would bring the meter back to the middle...not adding negative.
