h: Manual

In manual exposure mode, you control both shutter speed and aperture. While the exposure meters are on, rotate the main command dial to choose a shutter speed, and the sub-command dial to set aperture. Shutter speed can be set to “p” or to values between 30 s and 1/8,000 s, or the shutter can be held open indefinitely for a long time-exposure (A, 0 124). Aperture can be set to values between the minimum and maximum values for the lens. Use the exposure indicators to check exposure.
