Advanced recording

Shutter priority is set with the exposure-mode dial (p. 39). The

photographer selects the shutter speed and the camera sets the

appropriate aperture to ensure correct exposure.

Turn either control dial to adjust the shutter speed between 30 and

1/4000 second. The shutter speed changes depending on the

position of the exposure-compensation dial, see camera notes on

page 41. The shutter speed can be seen on the monitor and in the

viewfinder.

Pressing the shutter-release button partway down displays the

corresponding aperture. Press the shutter-release button all the way

down to take the picture.

If the required exposure is beyond the aperture range, the aperture

display blinks. Adjust the shutter speed until the display is steady.

When using flash, the shutter speed cannot exceed the flash-sync

speed, see page 42. Flash range is dependent on the aperture, see

page 51.

SHUTTER PRIORITY - S

Aperture priority is set with the exposure-mode dial (p. 39). The

photographer selects the aperture and the camera sets the

appropriate shutter speed to ensure correct exposure.

Turn either control dial to adjust the aperture. The aperture value

changes depending on the position of the exposure-compensation

dial, see camera notes on page 41. The aperture range depends on

the lens. The aperture value can be seen on the monitor and in the

viewfinder.

Pressing the shutter-release button partway down displays the

corresponding shutter speed. With the camera sensitivity (ISO) set to

auto, the shutter speed may not change when the aperture is

adjusted because the shutter speeds can change in fine steps. Press

the shutter-release button all the way down to take the picture.

If the required exposure is beyond the shutter speed range, the

shutter-speed display blinks. Adjust the aperture until the display is

steady.

When using flash, the shutter speed cannot exceed the flash-sync

speed. If the shutter-speed display blinks, adjust the aperture until

the display is steady. Flash range is dependent on the aperture, see

page 51.

There is a limit to the maximum shutter speed when using the built-in flash. When Anti-Shake

is on, the maximum shutter speed that can be used is 1/125s. With Anti-Shake off, the flash

sync. speed is 1/160s. While a faster shutter speed cannot be used, there is no limit to the use

of slower shutter speeds.

Flash Sync. Speed

The shutter speed used for each exposure is displayed on the monitor and in the viewfinder.

The following notation is used:

The reciprocal is used for shutter speeds from 1/4000 second to 1/3 second. 125 is

1/125 second.

For shutter speeds of a half a second or longer, a quote mark is used to

denote whole seconds. 1”5 is one and a half seconds and 15” is fifteen

seconds.
