SHOOT CUSTOM

AFlexible Program

In exposure mode e, different combinations of shutter speed and aperture can be selected by rotating the main command dial while the

exposure meters are on (“flexible program”).

Rotate the command dial to the right for large apertures (small f-numbers) that blur

background details or fast shutter speeds that “freeze” motion. Rotate the command dial to the left for small apertures (large f-numbers) that increase depth of field or slow shutter

speeds that blur motion. All combinations produce the same exposure. While flexible

program is in effect, an asterisk (“*”) appears in the top control panel. To restore default shutter

speed and aperture settings, rotate the command dial until the asterisk is no longer displayed, choose another mode, or turn the camera off.

Shutter speed: 1/2,000 s;	Shutter speed: 1/50 s;
aperture: f/3.5	aperture: f/22
