Setting the Electronic Shutter
Setting the Shutter Mode/Speed
ÁThe shutter speed during shutter mode and standard mode is set by the SHUTTER switch.
ÁDuring SYNCHRO SCAN mode, the shutter speed can be set beforehand at the SYNCHRO SCAN page of the setting menu. In the SYNCHRO SCAN mode, the shutter speed can easily be changed using the SYNCHRO (“o” and “p”) buttons. (It can also be set using the UP or DOWN button.)
ÁThe shutter speed selection range can be limited to the required range and whether to use special operation modes (SYNCHRO SCAN or SUPER V) can be selected at the SHUTTER SPEED page of the setting menu.
1 Set DISP MODE on the “VF DISPLAY” SUB menu page of MAIN menu screen 2 of 4 to “2” or “3” by following the steps outlined in “Changing the Display Mode” (page 62).
2 Press the SHUTTER switch from the ON position to the SEL side. The current shutter setting appears in the setting change message display position on the viewfinder screen.
Ex.: 1/120, 1/60.8, etc.
