Changing P, A, S, or M mode settings

ISO—adjust the camera’s sensitivity to light. Higher ISO indicates greater sensitivity.

NOTE: A higher ISO may produce unwanted “noise” in a picture. ISO 3200 and 6400 are available only in

2.2, 2.1, and 1.2 MP picture sizes.

Flash Compensation—adjust flash brightness.

Exposure Compensation—adjust the exposure. If the picture is too light, decrease

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

Shutter speed—control how long the shutter stays open. A shaking hand icon

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

Aperture—(also known as f-stop) control the size of the lens opening, which

determines the depth of field.

■ Smaller f-stop numbers indicate a larger lens opening; good for low-light.

■ Larger f-stop numbers indicate a smaller lens opening; keeps the main subject

sharp; good for landscapes and well-lit conditions.
