Adjusting Exposure
Your camera normally adjusts exposure automatically.
However, you may want to increase the exposure setting if
you want to lighten your picture or if you’re taking pictures
of an object against a bright background, such as sand or
snow on a sunny day. Similarly, you may want to decrease it
if you want to darken the picture, or if you’re taking pictures
against a dark background.
With the PhotoPC 800, you can select predefined exposure
settings, or you can fine-tune the exposure manually by
setting the shutter speed and aperture setting.
NOTE
If you’re using the viewfinder, you can also use the camera’s
controls to make predefined exposure adjustments. See page 3-7
for instructions.
