Doing more with your camera

Using PASM/C mode settings

Settings apply only in PASM/C

Settings you change in PASM modes apply only to pictures taken in those modes.

Settings you change in C mode apply only to pictures taken in that mode.

For example, if you change the Color Mode to Sepia while in P, A, S, or M mode, then

Smart Scene mode and the manually-selected Scene modes retain the default setting

of Color.

NOTE: The settings, including Flash, are maintained for PASM/C modes—even when you change modes or

turn off the camera.

The PASM/C modes control:

Aperture—also known as f-stop or f-number, controls the size of the lens opening,

which determines the depth of field. Smaller f-numbers, for example f/2.8, refer to a

bigger lens opening. Larger f-numbers, for example f/8, refer to a smaller lens

opening.

Larger f-numbers keep the main subject sharp; good for landscapes and well-lit

conditions. Smaller f-numbers are good for portraits and low-light conditions. The

highest and lowest aperture numbers may be affected by optical zoom.

Shutter Speed—controls how long the shutter stays open. A shaking hand icon

warns of slow shutter speeds. (Use a tripod for slow shutter speeds.)

Exposure Compensation—lets you manually adjust the exposure (± 2.0 in

1/3 steps); good for controlling backlit or non-standard scenes. If the picture is too

light, decrease the setting; if it’s too dark, increase the setting.

ISO Speed—controls sensitivity of the camera sensor (64, 100, 200, 400, 800).

Higher settings are more sensitive to light, but may produce unwanted "noise" in a

picture.
