The Exposure pull-down menu is shown as follows:
The exposure is the amount of light received by the image sensor and is determined by the
width of the lens diaphragm opening, the amount of exposure by the sensor (shutter speed),
and other exposure parameters. With this setting, users can define how the Auto Exposure
function works.
There are two exposure modes: Auto Mode and Manual Mode.
