Chapter 3 Advanced Operation
S MODE: Shutter Priority
In S mode, you select the shutter speed and the camera automatically
sets the aperture required for proper exposure.
1. Set the command switch to ASM.
2. While pressing the mode button, turn the control dial until 'S'
blinks in the data panel.
The shutter priority mode is selected when you release the mode
button.
3. Turn the control dial to select the shutter speed.
If the aperture display blinks in the data panel, the required setting
is outside the aperture range of the lens. Turn the control dial
until the blinking stops. (See “Trouble Shooting” beginning on
page 51 for more exposure warnings.)
The number 60, or 125, displayed in the data panel stands for
1/60 or 1/125 of a second.
See page 41 for information on flash exposure in S mode.
