These parameters work as in a real camera and also have some extra aids.

Presets

• Custom. (default). If it’s set like this, all the parameters below can be set freely and independently except for the EV (exposure value) which is linked to the Shutter (1/s) (or shutter speed parameter).

• Lock Exposure. This mode will make the render keep the same illumination level regardless of the parameter you change. This lets you play with other parameters, like the Fstop or the shutter speed (which affect the depth of field and the motion blur respectively) while keeping the same illumination level. If you change the ISO, the Fstop or the EV, it will be compensated with the shutter speed; if you change the shutter speed, it will be compensated with the Fstop.

• Dark Interior. This sets these fixed values suitable to get a properly illuminated image when rendering a dark interior scene: ISO: 800 - Shutter: 10 - Fstop: 5.6 - EV: 5.293

• Bright Interior. This sets these fixed values suitable to get a properly illuminated image when rendering a bright interior scene: ISO: 250 - Shutter: 50 - Fstop: 5.6 - EV: 9.293

• Overcast Exterior. This sets these fixed values suitable to get a properly illuminated image when rendering an overcast exterior scene: ISO: 100 - Shutter: 200 - Fstop: 5.6 - EV: 12.615

• Bright Exterior. This sets these fixed values suitable to get a properly illuminated image when rendering a bright exterior scene: ISO: 100 - Shutter: 500 - Fstop: 5.6 - EV: 13.937

• Night Exterior. This sets these fixed values suitable to get a properly illuminated image when rendering a night exterior scene: ISO: 2000 - Shutter: 20 - Fstop: 5.6 - EV: 4.971

After setting one of the fixed presets, you can freely change the values; in that case, the Presets dropdown will change to Custom.
