Program Shift

In Program AE Mode, you can change the preset aperture value and shutter speed without changing the exposure. This is called Program Shift.

You can make the background more blurred by decreasing the aperture value or record a moving subject more dynamically by slowing the shutter speed when taking a picture in Program AE Mode.

Press the shutter button halfway and display the aperture value and shutter speed value on the screen.

While the values are displayed (about

10 seconds), perform the Program Shift by rotating the rear dial.

•It will switch between Program Shift operation and Exposure Compensation operation (P74) every time

the rear dial is pressed while the values are	A
displayed.

•The Program Shift indication A appears on the screen when Program Shift is activated.

•Program Shift is canceled if the camera is turned off or the rear dial is rotated until the Program Shift indication disappears.

Note

•EV is an abbreviation of [Exposure Value], a unit indicating the amount of exposure. The EV changes with the aperture value or the shutter speed.

•If the exposure is not adequate when the shutter button is pressed halfway, the aperture value and shutter speed turns red.

•Program Shift is canceled and the camera returns to normal Program AE Mode if more than 10 seconds pass after Program Shift is activated. However, the Program Shift setting is memorized.

•Depending on the brightness of the subject, Program Shift may not be activated.

•Program Shift is available in all ISO sensitivity settings except [ ].
