4.The shutter speed dial between 1/1000 to 4S can be set to 1/2 step by pressing the up/down button. The set shutter speed will be displayed on the LCD panel and in the viewfinder.

If the shutter speed does not change to 1/2 step, confirm Pentax Function No. 1

When the shutter release button is depressed halfway down, the shutter speed and the aperture value will be displayed in the viewfinder.

In flash photography, when you use the flash sync shutter speed of 1/60 second or a non-dedicated external flash unit, set the shutter speed dial to the [ X ] (1/60 of second) position.

* Exposure Warning

If the subject is too bright or too dark, the shutter speed and aperture setting in the viewfinder blink. When the subject is too bright, choose a faster shutter speed. If it is too dark, choose a slower shutter speed. When the shutter speed indication stops blinking, you can take the picture. If both selected shutter speed and aperture blink, it means that the exposure is out of metering range, unable to obtain a correct exposure even if the shutter speed is adjusted. Select a darker subject if the subject is too bright. Use a flash if it is too dark.
