AperturePriodtyoA
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 the control dial (1) to adjust the aperture in 1/3 Ev increments.
The aperture range depends on the lens. The aperture is displayed 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.
Shutter PriorityoS
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 the control dial (1) to adjust the shutter speed between 30 and
1/4000 second in 1/3 Ev increments. The shutter speed is displayed
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.
ix Flash Sync. Speed
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

if the required exposure is beyond the shutter speed and aperture
range, the shutter speed and aperture displays blink. In bright
conditions, use a neutral density filter on the lens, set a lower camera
sensitivity (ISO), or, if using artificial lights, reduce the intensity of the
illumination. In dark conditions, use the built-in flash or increase the
camera sensitivity (ISO).

_ About Shutter Speeds -_,
The shutter speed used for each exposure is displayed on the monitor and in the viewfinder.
The following notation is used:
