brightness of the picture can be adjusted
as necessary.
The adjustable range of exposure value is
from EV -3.0 to EV+3.0.
ISO
The ISO Function allows you to set the
sensitivity of the cameras light sensor
based on the brightness of the scene. To
improve the cameras sensor performance
in darker environments, a higher ISO value
is required. A lower ISO value is needed
when shooting in brighter conditions.
Pictures taken at higher ISO settings will
generally have more noise than those
taken at lower ISO settings. The cameras
ISO settings include: Auto, 100, 200, 400,
800, 1600 and 3200.

Shutter Adjustment
For shutter speed, the camera may automatically
set the aperture value corresponding to the
manually set shutter speed to obtain the most
suitable exposure value. The movement of objects
may be shown by adjusting the shutter speed. High
shutter value can help you more clearly capture
fast moving objects, while low shutter value can
better show the movement of objects.
Aperture Adjustment
You can adjust the aperture size value. Selecting
a large aperture opening will emphasize the
point of focus and show a blurry background and
foreground. A small aperture opening will keep
both the background and main object in clear
focus.
