S SHUTTER SPEED PRIORITY AE

When you set the desired shutter speed, the camera will select the appropriate aperture value for correct exposure. You can achieve stop action effects by selecting a fast shutter speed, or express the feeling of motion speed for a moving subject by selecting a slow shutter speed.

1

Set the “D”-Dial to the “Drive –Area” (P.14).

2

Set the “Mode”-Selector to the “S” position.

3

Press the shutter button “Half-Way” to verify the focus, and select the desired Shutter Speed value by turning the “S” –Dial.

4

Verify the setting in the viewfinder.

If the appropriate aperture value is beyond the range of the lens in use, due to the subject being too bright or too dark, the aperture value indicator will blink. If the subject is too bright, set the shutter speed to a faster one, or if the subject is too dark, set the shutter speed to a slower one, until the indicator stops blinking.

CAUTION !!

￿The range of available slow shutter speeds varies depending on the ISO setting (P.52). At ISO 100, shutters speeds up to 15 sec. can be used. At ISO 200 and 400, shutter speeds up to 1 sec. can be used. Bulb setting is only available at ISO 100
