Automatic exposure works fairly well most of the time. But then there are those times when we end up with overexposed or underexposed images that don't look so hot. It's just impossible for them to recognize when we want our focal point darker or lighter.
So iOS 8 has given us Manual Exposure with the stock camera. The process is simple. Just tap your desired focal point and a vertical line with a sun should appear alongside your focus box.
To adjust it to how you like it, simply swipe the sun up to lighten your image or down to darken it. If you want to go back to the automatic settings, just tap elsewhere on the screen and it will refocus and automatically expose the image.
Now go get those great exposure shots!
