Programme shift

In Programme AE Mode, you can change the preset aperture value and shutter speed without changing the exposure. This is called programme shift.

You can make the background more blurred by decreasing the aperture value or record a moving subject more dynamically by slowing the shutter speed when taking a picture in Programme AE Mode.

Press the shutter button halfway and then use the rear dial to activate programme shift while the aperture value and the shutter speed are displayed on the screen (about 10 seconds).

The programme shift indication A appears on the screen when programme shift is activated.

Programme shift is cancelled if the camera is turned off or the rear dial is rotated until the programme shift indication disappears.
