Taking pictures and videos Using P, A, S, M, and C modes ISO Aperture Shutter speed Flash compensation Exposure compensation Aperture-also known as f-stop, controls the size of the lens opening. (This determines the depth of field.) The highest and lowest aperture settings may be affected by optical zoom. Aperture (f) Depth of field Larger f number Makes both the foreground and the background sharp. (smaller lens opening) Good for landscapes and well-lit conditions. Smaller f number (larger lens opening) Makes the foreground sharp and the background blurry. Good for portraits and low-light conditions. Shutter speed-controls how long the shutter stays open. A shaking hand icon warns of slow shutter speeds. (To prevent camera shake, use a tripod.) Exposure Compensation-controls how much light enters the camera. Add or subtract up to 2 EV in 0.3 EV steps. If the picture is too light, decrease the setting; if it's too dark, increase the setting. Flash Compensation-controls the flash brightness (brighter: +0.5, +1.0; less bright: -0.5, -1.0). You must be within flash range. Unavailable if flash setting is Off. ISO-controls sensitivity of the camera sensor (80, 100, 200, 400, 800). Higher settings are more sensitive to light, but may produce unwanted "noise" in a picture. You can only use ISO 800 if you are in the 1.8 MP Picture Size setting.
