Exposure value
: Change the exposure value. This determines how much light the
camera’s sensor receives. For low-light situations, use a higher exposure.
•
ISO

camera equivalents. Low values are for stationary or brightly-lit objects. Higher values are
for fast-moving or poorly-lit objects.
•
White balance
: Select an appropriate white balance, so images have a true-to-life colour
range. The settings are designed for specific lighting situations. These settings are similar
to the heat range for white-balance exposure in professional cameras.
•
Metering modes
: Select a metering method. This determines how light values are
calculated.
Centre-weighted
measures background light in the centre of the scene.
Spot
measures the light value at a specific location.
