Shutter speed
Shutter speed refers to how long the shutter is open and the camera sensor is
exposed to light.
A fast shutter speed helps to freeze motion, while a slow shutter speed can create
an effect called "motion blur", where moving objects appear blurred along their
line of motion.
The shutter speed is automatically adjusted in photos and videos.
To adjust the shutter speed
1 When using the camera, tap Mode >
2 Tap SS and drag the slider to adjust the shutter speed.
3 Close the settings menu. The setting is saved.
4 Press the camera key or tap the shutter button to take the photo.
ISO
ISO determines how sensitive your camera is to light. A low ISO number means
lower sensitivity, and a high ISO number means higher sensitivity. Higher
sensitivity can add blur to your photos.
Choose a higher ISO value when taking photos of moving objects or when taking
photos in low light without the flash.
If there is too much light, use the lowest ISO setting to achieve a higher image
quality.
ISO is automatically adjusted when taking photos and videos.
To adjust the ISO value
1 When using the camera, tap Mode >
2 Tap ISO and drag the slider to adjust the ISO value.
