    P, A, S, and M modes
    Use these modes when you want more control over your camera and pictures.
    NOTE:  Settings you change in P, A, S, or M modes apply only to pictures taken in those modes. For example, 
    if you change the Color Mode to Sepia while in P, A, S, or M mode, you retain the default setting of 
    Color for Auto and Scene modes. 
     
    The settings, including Flash, are maintained for P, A, S, and M modes—even when you change 
    modes or turn off the camera. Use Reset to Default (see the table that starts on 
    page 32) to reset P, 
    A, S, or M mode to its default setting.

    settings.
    Aperture 
    Priority
    Controlling aperture, exposure compensation, and ISO speed. Aperture

    Shutter 
    Priority
    Controlling the shutter speed, exposure compensation, and ISO speed.

    produce an acceptable exposure. To prevent camera shake, use a tripod 
    for slow shutter speeds. Press 
      to select settings.

    Changing P, A, S, or M mode settings
    PASM modes control the aperture (f-number, also known as f-stop), shutter speed,

    Exposure Compensation—adjust the exposure; good for controlling backlit or 
    non-standard scenes. If the picture is too light, decrease the setting; if it’s too dark, 
    increase the setting.
    Shutter speed—control how long the shutter stays open. A shaking hand icon  
    warns of slow shutter speeds. (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 portraits and 
    low-light conditions.
    ■Larger f-stop numbers indicate a smaller lens opening; keeps the main subject 
    sharp; good for landscapes and well-lit conditions.
