You can select a shutter speed from 1/4000* seconds to 30 seconds.

About shutter speed

When you set the shutter speed faster, moving objects such as running people, cars or splashing water, etc., appear stopped.

When you set the shutter speed slower, the traces of moving objects such as a river current etc., appear. You can shoot more natural live action images.

Notes

When the shutter speed is fast, the amount of flash light may be insufficient even if you fire the flash.

If the proper exposure is not obtained after making the settings, the setting value indicators on the screen flash. You can shoot in this condition, but we recommend that you adjust the flashing values again.
