Aperture

ISO—adjust the camera’s sensitivity to light. Higher ISO indicates 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 scene is too light, decrease the setting; if it’s too dark, increase the setting.

Shutter speed—control how long the shutter stays open. (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.
