the correct exposure manually by changing the shutter
speed and the aperture. Select any exposure mode
among Auto Exposure, Shutter Priority, Aperture
Priority, and Manual Exposure. Although these
exposure modes are similar to the predefined
program modes available in the Program camera
mode, you can make advanced exposure adjustment
