Over-exposure warning

Shutter speed “4000” flashes during aperture priority auto photography, “Minimum aperture value” for the attached lens flashes during shutter priority auto photography, and shutter speed “4000” flashes during program priority auto photography, to warn of over-exposure. As the subject is too bright, adjust the aperture or shutter speed until the flashing display is lit continuously. Optional or other commercially available ND filters (light reduction filters) may also be used for this adjustment.

Under-exposure warning

Shutter speed “32" ” flashes during aperture priority auto photography, “Maximum aperture value” for the attached lens flashes during shutter priority auto photography, and shutter speed “32" ” flashes during program priority auto photography, to warn of under-exposure. As the subject is too dark, increase the brightness of the subject, or change the shutter speed and aperture until the flashing display is lit continuously. Note that the use of the internal flash, or a separate flash, improves the brightness and clarity of photographs.

•The shutter button may be pressed even when the over or under-exposure warning is dis- played.

2. Manual exposure photography

<1.Taking photographs with the exposure set manually “M” (man- ual exposure) mode>

In this mode, you set the aperture and shutter speed yourself. This mode can also be used to intentionally achieve over- or under-exposure effects. Refer to the exposure meter display in the viewfinder to set the exposure.

Set the exposure mode to “M”.

See page 31 for setting details.

Set the aperture and shutter speed, and take the photograph.

The aperture is set with the lens aper- ture ring, and the shutter speed is set with the R dial.

The set shutter speed and aperture are displayed in the viewfinder and on the display panel.

The exposure meter in the viewfinder displays the difference with the standard exposure. Change the shutter speed or lens aperture to obtain “Recommended” on the exposure meter display
