Setting the Shutter Speed

When you set the shutter speed in the shutter speed- priority AE mode, the camera automatically selects an aperture value to match the brightness. Faster shutter speeds allow you to catch an instantaneous image of a moving subject while slower speeds create a flowing effect and allow you to shoot without a flash in dark areas.

zAdjust the shutter speed using the W or X arrow when the image is underexposed (insufficient light) or overexposed (too much light) and the correct exposure cannot be obtained.

zThe nature of CCD image sensors is such that noise in the recorded image increases at slow shutter speeds. This camera, however, applies special processing to images shot at shutter speeds slower than 1.3 seconds to eliminate the noise, thereby producing high-quality images. Nevertheless, a certain amount of processing time may be required before the next image can be shot.

zThe aperture value and shutter speed change according to the zoom state as follows.

zThe fastest shutter speed for flash synchronization is 1/250 second. The camera automatically resets the shutter speed to 1/250 second if a faster speed is selected.
