About Program Shift

In the Program AE mode, you can freely change the shutter speed and aperture value combination (program) set by the camera while retaining the same exposure. This is called program shift.

To shift the program, press the shutter button halfway and turn the <l> dial until the desired shutter speed or aperture value is displayed.

Program shift is canceled automatically after the picture is taken.

Program shift cannot be set when the built-in flash is used.
