Changing P, A, S, or M mode settings
PASM modes control the aperture (f-number, also known as f-stop), shutter speed,
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.
2 Jog dial: Turn to access a setting. Press to unlock the setting. Turn to change the
setting. Press to lock the setting. (See page 36.)
ISO—adjust the camera’s sensitivity to light. Higher ISO indicates greater sensitivity.
NOTE: A higher ISO may produce unwanted “noise” in a picture. ISO 6400 available only in 3.1 MP and
lower picture sizes.
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.
