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 use the joystick to

A

 

 

activate program shift while the aperture value and the

 

 

shutter speed are displayed on the screen (about 10 seconds).

 

 

•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 joystick is moved up and down until the program shift indication disappears.

Note

•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.
