Light from the subject passes through the lens and exposes the film.
Shutter speed and aperture control how much light reaches the film. The
combination of shutter speed and aperture appropriate for subject
brightness and film sensitivity results in correct exposure—a result
provided by the F80/F80D/F80S's four exposure modes: Programmed
Auto (page 50), Shutter-Priority Auto (page 52), Aperture-Priority Auto
(page 54) and Manual (page 56) exposure modes.
When a highly reflective or very low reflective object is within a frame,
correct exposure may not be obtained. In such situations, exposure
compensation is required. The F80/F80D/F80S offers auto exposure lock
(page 58), exposure compensation (page 60) or Auto Exposure
Bracketing function (page 61) allowing a photographer greater control of
exposure than that afforded by Auto exposure modes.
