MManual

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

1 Choose 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 apertures (lower f-numbers): choose from values between the minimum and maximum for the lens.

When shutter speeds other than “Bulb” or “Time” are selected, the exposure indicator shows whether the photograph would be under- or over-exposed at current settings.
