Apr 19, 2013 at 6:59 comment added michaelk @MichaelClark and mattdm: thx for your feedback. I tried to update and clarify that. Feel free to edit my post as well to improve it. My main intention was to give a correct formula and calculation for the question asked, which is still wrong in the other two answers and I cannot comment on them (due to missing rep).

Apr 19, 2013 at 4:43 comment added Michael C Too often we say "a scene is EV=0" when we mean "a scene that would be properly exposed at EV=0." The EV is an expression of how much light we are allowing to expose our recording medium, not the brightness value of the scene. A higher EV # is a lower exposure setting that is appropriate for a brighter scene.

improved explanation
Apr 18, 2013 at 22:31 comment added michaelk @mattdm I am not sure what your point is. A high EV means bright sunlight (thats why smaller apertures and shorter exposure times correspond to higher EV values), while a low or even negative EV describes a very dark scene (wide aperture and long exposure time). EV=0 is a very dark scene. By exposure compensation of +0.33 let more light in (t=1/32 is longer than t=1/40)
