∫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 then rotate the front dial to activate program shift while the aperture value and the shutter speed are displayed on the Viewfinder (about 10 seconds).

•You can change the operation method of the dials with [DIAL SET.] (P105) in the [CUSTOM MENU] menu.

•If the exposure is not adequate when the shutter button is pressed halfway, the aperture value and the shutter speed on the LCD monitor (information display screen) turn red. The aperture value and the shutter speed blink on the Viewfinder. (They do not blink when the flash is activated.)

•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.
