MManual

In manual exposure mode, you control both shutter speed and aperture.

❚❚Choosing Shutter Speed and Aperture Adjust shutter speed and aperture with reference to the exposure indicator (see below). Shutter speed is set by pressing W up for faster speeds and down for slower speeds: choose from values between 30 s and 1/16,000 s or select “Bulb” or “Time” to hold the shutter open indefinitely for a long time-exposure. Aperture is selected by rotating the multi selector clockwise for smaller apertures (higher f-numbers) and counterclockwise for larger aper- tures (lower f-numbers): choose from val- u e s b e t we e n t h e m i n i mu m a n d maximum for the lens.
