P, A, S, and M modes

Mode When to use Press Jog dial to control

Program mode offers the ease of auto shooting with

full access to all menu options. The camera
automatically sets the shutter speed and aperture
(f-stop) based on the scene lighting.

Aperture Priority mode controls depth of field (the
range of sharpness). The aperture setting may be
affected by optical zoom.

Shutter Priority mode prevents blur when your
subject is moving. The camera automatically sets the
aperture for proper exposure. (To prevent blur, use a
tripod for slow shutter speeds.)

Manual mode offers the highest level of creative
control. (To prevent blur, use a tripod for slow shutter
speeds.)

Changing P, A, S, or M mode settings

PASM modes control the aperture (f-number, also known as f-stop), shutter speed,
exposure compensation, flash compensation, and ISO. Use the Menu button to
control all other settings.

1 Turn the Mode dial to P, A, S, or M.

2 Turn the Jog dial to highlight a setting, then press it to edit the setting.

Turn the Jog dial to change a setting, then press it to save it. (See page 19.)

ISO—adjust the camera’s sensitivity to light. Higher ISO indicates greater sensitivity.
NOTE: A higher ISO may produce unwanted “noise” in a picture. ISO 3200 and 6400 are available only in

3.1 MP and lower picture sizes. (In Smart Capture mode, ISO 1600 is the maximum.)

Flash Compensation—adjust flash brightness.

Exposure Compensation—adjust the exposure. If the scene is too light, decrease

the setting; if it’s too dark, increase the setting.

Shutter speed—control how long the shutter stays open. (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-stop numbers indicate a larger lens opening; good for low-light.

■ Larger f-stop numbers indicate a smaller lens opening; keeps the main subject

sharp; good for landscapes and well-lit conditions.

20 www.kodak.com/go/support

Taking pictures/videos

Using exposure compensation to adjust brightness

In P, A, S, and Panorama modes, you can adjust exposure compensation before you
take a picture to make your pictures darker or lighter. Only the first picture in
Panorama mode can be adjusted—that adjustment is applied to the remaining
pictures. (For more about the Jog dial, see page 19. For more about Exposure
Compensation, see page 20.)

1 Turn the Jog dial to highlight Exposure Compensation, then press it to edit

the setting. Turn the Jog dial to change the setting, then press it to save it.

An exposure compensation level is shown on the LCD or EVF and the image gets darker
or lighter.

2 Take the picture when you are satisfied with the exposure compensation level.

Using exposure compensation with exposure bracketing

You can use exposure compensation (see page 21) in conjunction with exposure
bracketing to get the best exposure.

If the exposure
compensation is set to:

0.0
+1.0
–1.0

And if the exposure bracketing
interval is set to 0.3 steps:

Set the Exposure Bracketing Interval
in the Capture + menu (see page 43).

Then the exposures
taken are:

–0.3, 0.0, +0.3
+0.7, +1.0, +1.3
–1.3, –1.0, –0.7
