IMPORTANT!

You may not be able to achieve the brightness you want when shooting an image that is very dark or very bright. If this happens, use the M mode to adjust the aperture or shutter speed manually.

“S Image AS” (page 92) does not work in the S mode and M mode. You can, however, turn on “A Camera AS”, if you like.

In the S mode, ISO sensitivity (page 39) always operates according to its “AUTO” setting. The ISO sensitivity setting cannot be changed while in the S mode.

While A, S, or M is selected for the exposure mode, the flash will not fire if > (Auto Flash) or ¥ (Red Eye Reduction) is selected as the flash mode. If you want the flash to fire, select < (Flash On) as the flash mode.
