Doing more with your camera
Changing P, A, S, or M mode settings
PASM modes control the aperture (f-number, also known as f-stop), shutter speed,
and exposure compensation, flash compensation, and ISO. Use the Menu button to
control all other settings.
1 Turn the Mode dial to P, A, S, or M.
The mode options are displayed.
2 Use the Jog dial to move between settings, open a setting, or change a setting.
ISO—adjust the camera’s sensitivity to light. Higher ISO indicate greater sensitivity.
NOTE: A higher ISO may produce unwanted “noise” in a picture.
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.
