OTHER RECORDING FUNCTIONS

6.Compose the image and then record it.

When the Shutter Speed is set to “Bulb”, exposure continues as long as you depress the shutter button. Because of this, use of the wired remote control unit is recommended whenever using the “Bulb” setting.

The self-timer is disabled while the Shutter Speed is set to “Bulb”.

The slowest shutter speed when “Bulb” is selected is 64 seconds.

Note that using a slower shutter speed increases the chance of static being present in your image, and the amount of static visible in an image is inversely pro- portional to the shutter speed.

At shutter speeds of one second or slower, the cam- era automatically performs internal data processing intended to limit image static, so the image record op- eration takes longer at slow shutter speeds. At shutter speeds of one second or greater, doubling the shutter speed setting tells you about how long it takes for an image to be recorded. For example, image recording with a shutter speed of one second takes about two seconds.

Aperture Priority Image Recording

You can fix the aperture at a specific level. A larger aperture (indicated by a smaller aperture value) narrows the focus range, while a smaller aperture widens the focus range.

Wide aperture (F3.2)

Decreased aperture (F8)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Manual settings: F3.2, F4.8, F8

Auto: Automatic aperture setting in accordance with subject

You can fix both the aperture and shutter speed (page E-70).

For shutter speed priority recording, set the “Shutter Speed” setting to “Auto”.

Adjust the aperture setting to compensate for the relative brightness or darkness of the subject you are recording.
