A camera's exposure is the result of the combination of its fStop, Shutter, and ISO values. As the fStop value is decreased, more light enters the camera, brightening the exposure. Conversely, as the Shutter value is decreasedincreased, the film is exposed for a shorter duration, darkening the exposure. As the ISO value of the film is increased, its sensitivity to light increases, allowing a given exposure brightness is to be achieved in a shorter amount of time. The camera may be focused manually, or automatically by the plugin, using one of three different strategies.

...

To address this, the camera provides the Lock Exposure to EV feature. When activated, it is not possible to directly alter Shutter and ISO; these values will be managed by the plugin as either fStop or EV are changed, maintaining a consistent final exposure. This makes it possible to adjust the camera's DOF without also affecting the exposure, or to adjust the exposure directly by adjusting EV, without being concerned with the somewhat complex relationship between fStop, Shutter, and ISO.
