Program Line Description

The bottom horizontal axis represents the shutter speed and the right vertical axis represents the aperture. On the left edge and top edge of the graph, the Exposure Value (EV) is indicated for respective shutter speed and aperture combination set by the Program AE mode and denoted by the colored program line.

Example: When the subject brightness is EV 12, the point where the diagonal line from EV 12 (on the top edge of the graph) intersects the program line indicates the corresponding shutter speed (1/320 sec.) and aperture (f/3.5) which the program sets automatically.
