What's the matter that Xiaomi 1s Youth Edition camera darkens when shooting in reverse light? How should I set it?

All automatic cameras, including SLR, DC and mobile phones are like this.

Because of the automatic exposure control, the brightness of the reference point in the picture is shot to a medium gray level.

In the spot metering mode, the whole screen is controlled based on the metering point, and the metering point is set to medium gray level.

In the average metering mode, the average brightness of the whole picture is controlled at a medium gray level.

Center weight photometry is between the above two, which is a weighted compromise.

When shooting in backlight, the sun in the picture is extremely bright. In order to make the whole picture not completely white, it is necessary to lower the overall exposure. In this way, all the scenery except the sun must look dark.

To take a good backlit photo, you need to keep learning and master your own skills.

First of all, you need to set the camera metering mode of Xiaomi 1S according to your shooting needs.

Spot metering is more suitable for backlighting.

If average metering or center weight metering is used, it is necessary to prevent sunlight from entering the picture and improve exposure compensation to improve the problem that the backlight surface of the scene is too dark.

If possible, try to fill the light. Professional photography has special lighting equipment. Ordinary cameras can use flash. The LED flash of Xiaomi mobile phone is too weak to be used in the case of sunlight backlight. It can only be reflected by reflectors or possible natural objects nearby, such as wall stones.
