Exposure compensation You can set exposure compensation in fine increments of 1/3 EV, perfect for capturing images with tricky lighting. Exposure compensation ranges from +2.0 EV to -2.0 EV in 1/3 EV increments for fine adjustment.

Aperture Prioritized Mode and Manual Exposure Mode The aperture prioritized exposure mode lets you set the size of the iris opening in the camera's lens. You can use it to control the depth of field. The 8000G supports three types of power supply: a high-capacity rechargeable battery, AA batteries, and an AC adapter. The rechargeable battery lets you work for extended periods without battery change, and captures about 400 images when it's fully charged. AA batteries are a convenient backup if you find yourself unexpectedly without a charged rechargeable battery; they will capture about 80 images when fresh. And if you're shooting indoors, the optional AC adapter captures an unlimited number of images.Manual Focus/AF Target MoveManual focus allows you to manually set the focus in conditions where automatic focus can't get a lock on your subject.
