Chapter 4: Adjusting the Camera Settings

You can modify the HP PhotoSmart 315 digital camera’s settings to fit the current photo- taking conditions and your preferences. For example, you can adjust the flash settings to fit current lighting conditions, and you can select the camera language you prefer to use. This chapter contains the information you need to take the best photos and get the most out of your digital camera.

Using the flash

The camera offers four flash settings. The current flash setting is indicated by an icon on the status LCD.

 

Auto

The camera determines the need for a flash based on lighting conditions.

 

 

The flash setting reverts to Auto each time you turn the camera on.

 

 

 

 

On

The flash will be used in all lighting conditions. The amount of light provided

 

 

by the flash will be adjusted according to the current lighting conditions. Use

 

 

this setting when the lighting for the entire photo is sufficient, but the lighting

 

 

for the subject is not, as in a backlighting situation. This is commonly called

 

 

“fill flash.”
