Selecting Aperture and Shutter Speed Manually

With the mode dial set to M (Manual mode), you can manually select both the aperture and the shutter speed. In this shooting mode, you can also set the camera in the bulb mode for long exposures. However, please remember that bulb shutter release is limited to 30 seconds. Exposure will end and the shutter will release after 30 seconds if you hold down the shutter button longer than 30 seconds.

Set the mode dial to M (Manual mode).

Turn the main dial to select the aperture value, and turn the sub dial to select the shutter speed.

Every movement of the dial changes the aperture value and shutter speed in 1/3 steps.

You can select the shutter speed within the range 1/640~8 seconds (or select “bulb”). If you select “bulb” then the shutter will remain open for as long as you keep the shutter button pressed down (to a maximum of 30 seconds). This is called the bulb shooting mode.

If you set the aperture value and shutter speed manually, that setting will remain in effect even after you switch to another shooting mode or switch the camera off and on. If you set the camera in the shooting mode again, the camera will return to the same aperture value and shutter speed.
