Exposure; Shutier Speed Dial And Aperture Dial - Nikon N5005 AF Instruction Manual

EXPOSURE
Exposure control consists of two parts -
aperture control and shutter speed control.
The aperture works basically the same way
as the iris of the human eye and controls the
amount of light passing through the lens.
The shutter, located in the camera body,
varies
the amount of light admitted to the
film by opening and closing at different
speeds. Together, these two controls deter-
mine the amount of light that strikes the film,
resulting in exposure control.
Using the shutter speed and aperture dials
of the N5005, you can select three different
automatic exposure control modes and one
manual mode.
