Camera question (from a newcomer)

Hi all. I started my kray journey with v.2.0 and I did few renders, until now.
A question: is there any relationship between the 'light' on the scene and the exposure of the camera?
I started my kray test with a 'non standard' lights set, and I wonder if I could use the camera to tweak the final result.
Many thanks!

I'm not sure what you mean by "exposure of the camera". If you mean "exposure" parameter in kray general tab then yes - increasing this value will make picture brighter.

Yes, the sense was what you understood. In particular: if you have a scene with a severe contrast between lighted and obscured spots... what is the best way to light the shadows without overexpose other parts of the image?
The 'physical accurate engine' makes me mad
Many thanks for the quick answer

Think about how you would light it in real life. Add fill lights and/or bounce cards to fill the shadows. You can also use Photon power multiplier to make shadows brighter.

Ok. Thanks. I'll go on as I'd be in real life (great!)
