I decided to edit a random picture I took a while ago, I think it turned out ok

Does underexposed means tune the aperture to a higher bit?

In your case, i think its not so severe so you can easily correct it using a software. but if you want to fix it immediately off the camera, I usually do it by adjusting ISO or shutter speed. I am a beginner, maybe someone more pro can advise too

Bump up ISO and use slower shutter speed would suffice.
Personally I'd use a slower shutter speed for that photo.
Don't have to bother about aperture cause you would still want to retain the DoF of the object you are shooting.
Well, it depends on situation tho.

Yea I agree that post-processing should fix the the photo in no time.

Mind resizing or spoiler your picture?
Anyway, shutter speed don't have to be that quick.
When metering, make sure its exposure is 0ev, unless the situation fools the meter in the camera.
Then adjustment should be made based on that.

Looks good enough for a Deepavali greeting card. Nice.

wow! thanks!

Again, underexposed.
The black thing on the left is distracting. CS5 content-aware fill can easily fix that.
Cropping at 16:9 / 16:10 would be much better.

I think your metering choice is wrong, try others next time.
If problem still persist, maybe you should up your exposure bias.

fishnoxygen : i usually used centered metering...
if landscape photography should i juz used matrix metering???
or better take 3 exposure and blend in all

HotChocolate : most of shots i juz used the Aperture mode...
i still dont know how and what is the "correct exposure", which metering mode to use,

My shots of the day:


f/2.5, 1/4000, ISO100, 50mm, PP-ed



f/2.0, 1/2500, ISO100, 50mm, cropped, PP-ed
Is this underexposed?
