5Shoot the image.

When you press the shutter button halfway, a number indicating the difference between the standard exposure* and the selected exposure appears on the LCD monitor. If the difference is more than ±2 steps, “-2” or “+2” appears in red.

*The standard exposure is calculated by the AE function according to the selected metering mode.

Shooting

•For functions available in this mode, see page 224.

•If you wish to change the exposure, select the shutter

speed or the aperture with the button and change the value using the left or right button.

•The LCD monitor’s brightness matches the selected shutter speed and aperture value. When you select a

fast shutter speed or shoot a subject in a dark place and

set the flash to (Red-Eye Reduction, Flash On) or (Flash On) the LCD monitor will always light up.

•For the correlation between aperture value and shutter speed, see page 93.
