Adjust the white balance to match different light sources such as sunlight, incandescent
(tungsten) lighting or, fluorescent lighting.

low as possible.

Set the exposure value manually to compensate for unusual lighting conditions such as
indirect indoor lighting, dark backgrounds, and strong backlighting.

exposure setting: correctly exposed, underexposed, and overexposed.
