(EV), etc. Tap on each option and slide the lower slider to the left or
right. Adjust specific values. Tap the button to switch the parameter
value between automatic and manual.
Sensitivity adjustment: The lower the ISO, the smoother the photo will
be. The higher the ISO, the louder the random background noise will

sensor is exposed to light. If you take a photo of a moving object, for
example, a running child, then you need to increase the shutter speed.
204
White balance: White balance is closely relevant to color temperature.
Under different lighting conditions, different color casts could be
created. For example, it can be of the slight blue cast under the light
source of fluorescent lamps and of the yellow cast under the light
source of incandescent lamps. To present the realistic color cast,
adjusting white balance could also lead to the change of color
temperature to either cooler or warmer tones.
Focusing: Adjust focusing to make photos sharper. Choose to either
focus on an object with a blurred background or focus on background
with blurred objects.
Exposure compensation: Once exposure compensation is on, the
camera will automatically come up with a suitable parameter for
exposure compensation, making the photos brighter or dimmer.
