Mode When to use
Program AE Mode offers the ease of auto exposure with full access
to all manual controls. The camera automatically sets the shutter
speed and aperture (f-stop) based on the scene lighting.
Manual Exposure Mode offers manual exposure with full access to all
menu options. (To prevent blur, use a tripod for slow shutter speeds.)
Exposure Compensation Adjust the exposure. If the scene is too light, decrease the setting; if it's too dark, increase the setting.
ISO Adjust the camera's sensitivity to light. Higher ISO indicates greater sensitivity.
NOTE: A higher ISO may produce unwanted "noise" in a picture.
Flash Compensation Adjust flash brightness.
Shutter Speed Control how long the shutter stays open. (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 aperture numbers indicate a larger lens opening; good for low-light.
•Larger aperture numbers indicate a smaller lens opening; keeps the main subject sharp; good for land-
scapes and well-lit conditions.
