Taking pictures and videos

Shutter speed—controls how long the shutter stays open. A shaking hand icon

warns of slow shutter speeds. (Use a tripod for slow shutter speeds.)

Exposure Compensation—allows the user to manually 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.

Flash Compensation—controls the flash brightness (+0.5, +1.0, –0.5, –1.0).
You must be within flash range. Unavailable if flash setting is Off.

ISO—controls sensitivity of the camera sensor (80,100, 200, 400, 800). Higher
settings are more sensitive to light, but may produce unwanted “noise” in a
picture. You can only use ISO 800 if you are in the 1.8 MP Picture Size setting. (See

Picture Size, page 31

.)
