Exposure Compensation—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.

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-numbers indicate a larger lens opening. Larger f-numbers indicate a smaller lens opening.

Larger f-numbers keep the main subject sharp; good for landscapes and well-lit conditions. Smaller f-numbers are good for portraits and low-light conditions.
