Creative Shooting
In the Basic Zone modes, to prevent spoiled shots, most functions are set automatically and cannot be changed. In the <d> (Program AE) mode, you can set various functions and be more creative.
In the <d> mode, the camera sets the shutter speed and aperture automatically to obtain a standard exposure.
The difference between the Basic Zone modes and <d> is explained on page 232.
The functions explained in this chapter can also be used in the <s>, <f>, and <a> modes explained in Chapter 4.
The Mmark shown on the right of the page title indicates that the function is available only in Creative Zone modes (p.22).
*<d> stands for Program.
*AE stands for Auto Exposure.
