Nikon S2H05000501 manual Shutter-Priority Auto, Shutter-Speed Limitations, Exposure Warning, Noise

S: Shutter-Priority Auto

In shutter-priority auto, you control shutter-speed by rotating the command dial, while the camera automatically adjusts aperture to produce optimal ex-

posure. Shutter speed can be set to values between 8 s to 1/2000 s in incre- ments equivalent to 1 EV (one step).

Shutter-Speed Limitations

At Continuous settings of Ultra HS and Movie ( 96), the camera takes a fixed number of frames per second. Shutter speed can not be set to values slower than the frame advance rate (1/30 s and 1/15 s, respectively).

Exposure Warning

If the photograph would be under- or over-exposed at the shutter-speed se- lected in shutter-priority auto or the aperture selected in aperture-priority auto, the shutter speed or aperture display in the monitor will flash when the shut- ter-release button is pressed halfway. Choose another setting and try again.

Noise

At shutter speeds of 1/4 s or slower, the shutter-speed indicator in the monitor will turn yellow to show that mottling (“noise”) may appear in the final pho- tograph. We recommend that you either choose a faster shutter speed or turn noise reduction on ( 118).
