exposure settings

Aperture and shutter

Exposure settings are the camera controls that determine how much light reaches the film or sensor: aperture, shutter speed, and ISO sensitivity.

Adjusting these settings affects brightness, motion blur, and depth of field.

I had to tweak the exposure settings for the low light.

Most cameras offer automatic modes alongside manual exposure settings.
