Canon EOS C100 Basic Manual

Shutter Speed

You can change the shutter speed using the joystick, it appears as a
fraction. Generally you will set this to 1/50 (180˚) unless there's a desired
effect you are trying to achieve by lowering it. Changing the shutter
speed does changed your exposure but it will effect the movement in
your image, so if you are unsure, stick to 1/50.
ISO
Press the joystick once and then navigate to ISO using the joystick. The
native ISO that will give you the best quality image is 850, this will
appear in brackets. The higher you set your ISO the brighter your image
will be. However, this is an artificial way of adding light so you start to
see noise in the image.
Iris / Aperture

Button number 12, on the left-hand side of the camera that
provides momentary automatic aperture. This is a good setting to
