Changing P, A, S, or M mode settings
PASM modes control the aperture (f-number, also known as f-stop), shutter speed,
and exposure compensation. Use the Menu button to control all other settings.

The mode options are displayed.
2 Press to choose P, A, S, or M.
3 Press to move between settings, open a setting, or change a setting.
4 Take a picture.
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.
