Totally different..... Does you camera have a viewfinder that you can look through? There's usually a little exposure meter visible when looking through the eye piece.... Sort of looks like a line with bars. the middle line is the longest indicating the normal exposure and then there other smaller bars, with a + - on either end..... If you camera is totally automatic...... then there might not be one....

I am, therefore I create.......
