Manually Setting the Shutter Speed and Aperture

You can manually set the shutter speed and aperture to shoot images. You can select settings such as a long exposure to suit your purpose.

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

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

z See page 159 for settings that can be

changed in this mode.

z If you wish to change the exposure, select the shutter speed or the aperture with the SET button and change the value using the left or right button.

z When the AF frame is set to FlexiZone, you can switch between shutter speed, aperture value and AF frame each time the SET button is pressed (p. 82).

z 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 (Flash On, Red-eye Reduction) or (Flash On), the image will always be bright.

z For the correlation between aperture value and shutter speed, see page 78.
