•Metering Mode. Select a metering mode to allow the camera to measure the amount of light and calculate the best-fit exposure value before capturing.

•Prefix. The file name of a newly captured photo or video is set to “IMAGE” or “VIDEO” followed by a sequential number, for example: IMAGE_001.jpg. You can also choose the current date or date and time as the file name prefix.
