KODAK DC215 Zoom Digital Camera
Adjusting the Camera Exposure

If your pictures seem too dark or too light, you can adjust the amount of light allowed into the camera so your pictures are properly exposed. These adjustments in lighting are called Exposure Compensation.

1. With the camera on, set the Slider switch to Capture.

   

2. Press the button.

   The Exposure Compensation screen appears.

3. Press a button to change the exposure number.
   
   
   • If your pictures are too dark, increase (+) the exposure number.
   • If your pictures are too light, decrease (-) the exposure number.

   You can adjust the exposure numbers from +2.0 to -2.0 in 0.5 increments. An increase of 1.0 doubles the amount of light allowed into the camera. A decrease of 1.0 reduces the amount of light allowed into the camera by half.

4. Press the DO-IT button to accept the exposure change.

   

   The Exposure Compensation icon appears in the LCD if Preview or Quickview are activated. (See Previewing a Picture Before it is Taken or Setting a Quickview for Each Picture.) 

5. To cancel Exposure Compensation, press a button until 0.0 is highlighted, then press the DO-IT button, or turn off the camera.
