Aperture is the size of the lens opening that controls the amount of light that enters the sensor. Aperture is measured with an f-stop scale. The smaller the f-stop number, the larger the lens aperture. Conversely, the larger the f-stop number, the smaller the lens aperture.

– Shutter Speed

​​Shutter Speed ​​is the length of time the camera shutter is open. Shutter speed is measured on a 1/X scale. The larger the X, the faster the shutter speed.

– ISO

ISO is the desired high and low light setting in the photo or the sensitivity of the camera sensor to light. The higher the ISO number, the more sensitive the camera is to light. While the smaller the ISO number, the lower the camera’s sensitivity to light.

– White Balance

White Balance is a term in photography for white spot calibration. Its function is to tell the color where the picture was taken.

– Focus

On DSLR cameras it is possible to take pictures using autofocus or manual focus.

– Tripod is a support that has three legs. Its function is to support the camera or cellphone to take stable pictures.

– Battery Backup function to be able to record images continuously because taking pictures often takes a long time.

– Memory Card Backup functions the same as a battery backup to anticipate shooting stops midway just because the memory is full.

– External Mic or Clip On functions the same as other microphones, namely to clarify the sound quality. However, it has another advantage in that the sound will remain clear even though it is far from the camera.
