Exposure Indicators

If the subject is too bright or too dark to allow correct exposure, the electronic analog exposure display will flash and one of the following indicators will appear in the viewfinder and the control panel on top of the camera:

Subject too bright; choose a higher f/-number or use an ND filter.

Subject too dark; choose a lower f/-number or use a flash.

Aperture Lock

Aperture can be locked at the selected setting ( pg. 94).

2—EV Steps for Exposure Control ( pg. 161)

By default, adjustments to aperture are made in increments equivalent to 1/3 EV (1/3 step). If desired, the size of the increments can be increased to 1/2 or 1 step.

12—Assign Command Dial ( pg. 166)

This setting can be used to reverse the roles of the command dials so that the main command dial controls aperture while shutter speed is assigned to the sub-command dial.

22—Aperture Setting ( pg. 173)

Use this setting when you want to adjust aperture using the lens aperture ring. Note that aperture for type G lenses is always set using the command dials, regardless of the option chosen for Custom Setting 22.
