When shooting digital it's wise to "expose right" which basically
means that you should apply as much exposure compensation as possible
without overexposing the image. More information and reasoning behind
all this you can find here:

The same holds true when one shoots negatives. With diapositives it's
the other way around - it's better to underexpose slightly.
