2Jog dial: Turn to access a setting. Press to unlock the setting. Turn to edit the setting. Press to lock the setting. (See page 40.)
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 3200 is available only in 2.2, 2.1, and 1.2 MP 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.
