Ambient light control question

27 October 2014 - 11:07 AM

Hi,

 

OK.  Let's say I am in Aperture Priority mode and am using a flash.

 

If I want to lower the ambient light due to the background being too light without impacting the exposure on the subject with the flash, do I use Exposure Compensation or Exposure Compensation + Flash Exposure Compensation.

 

I get it that there are many who would do this in manual, but I am trying to understand the approach for a semi-auto mode like Aperture Priority.

 

Thanks!

 

Steve
