When your taking a pic with the k850 is it the white balance you are changing or the exposure when you move the d pad to the left and right

There are white balance options in the setting menu and to change the exposure, just change the ISO.

I, too, would prefer having the white balance options being changed by the d-pad rather than the brightness, as I change the former more often.. but, oh well, being able to increase/decrease the brightness of a pic "on-the-go" is sometimes useful, too..

After reading through photo mate i found out its not the brightness. It is the exposure. Which is really good.

the exposure times, depends also on the profiles & ISO-settings...so yes, you have that on k850..............

thats why it called E.V.

what you change with the dpad and joystick(other models) is the exposure. when you change any value this is what you get E.V X.X

E.V. = Exposure Value i think.

The higher the exposure the more light your lense is exposed too in low light conditions. Now knowing this makes for better night pictures.

Exposure wont. If you put the iso level up it will. If your going to be putting the exposure up to top then your gonna need a tripod or a steady surface

I did many settings also, which can involve EV,ISO, scene modes and also white balance. Never gonna switch ON my stabilizer though. It spoils the image, making pictures look redder and rougher especially at night, where we really need stabilizer. I'm either gonna use a steady surface or have very stable hands.

me and Brewcaster have use the Stabilizer ON all time, (except for flash pics, there its not mather)

i asked support about the stabilizer, they confirmed that it will NOT increase the quality, actaully the opposite, (it make big pictures sharper..its the same stabilizer who Sony use in their Cybershoot cameras)....the stabilizer is realy awesome on landscape, etc.


ps....Brewcaster have some realy good k850 pictures on Flickr.com..(check them out)

Here is a tryout which I did a few days back. Using twilight landscape mode. It really does affect picture quality, since twilight mode needed stabilizer the most. It is the third post from this link:

So for daylight turning ON stabilizer might not really affect image quality, but it may not be the same when dealing with night shots.
