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.

A

1Press the shutter button halfway and display the aperture value and shutter speed value on the screen.

2While the values are displayed (about 10 seconds), perform the Program Shift

by rotating the front dial.

It will switch between Program Shift operation and Exposure Compensation operation (P71) every time the front dial is pressed while the values are displayed.

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

To cancel Program Shift, turn the camera off or rotate the front dial until the Program Shift indication disappears.

Note

How the Exposure Compensation is switched can be changed by [EXPO. SETTINGS] (P129) in the [CUSTOM MENU] menu.

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

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 not possible when the [SENSITIVITY] is set to [ ].
