The amount of light that is let into the camera to create an image on the camera’s sensor is controlled by the combination of aperture (how wide open the lens is) and shutter speed (how long the shutter remains open to let in the light).

The camera is leaving the creative decision about exposure entirely up to you, even if the resulting photograph would be washed out by excessive exposure or under-exposed to the point of near-blackness. Finally, you should be aware of the procedure for setting the camera’s ISO in Manual mode.
