Exposure Compensation—adjust the exposure; 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.
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 portraits and
low-light conditions.
■ Larger f-stop numbers indicate a smaller lens opening; keeps the main subject
sharp; good for landscapes and well-lit conditions.
