w Manual Exposure Assistance
• The manual exposure assistance is an
approximation. We recommend checking
the pictures using Auto Review.
w About [B] (Bulb)
If you set the shutter speed to [B], the
shutter stays open while the shutter button
is pressed fully (up to about 8 minutes).
The shutter closes if you release the
shutter button.
Use this when you want to keep the shutter
open for a long time to take pictures of
fireworks, a night scene etc.
• If you set the shutter speed to [B], [ ]
is displayed on the viewfinder and [B] is
displayed on the LCD monitor.
• When you take pictures with the shutter
speed set to [B], use a sufficiently charged
battery. (P19)
• We recommend using a tripod or the
remote Control Unit (CR-DC1; optional)
when you take pictures with the shutter
speed set to [B]. Refer to P107 for
information about the remote shutter.
• When you take pictures with the shutter
speed set to [B], noise may become
visible. To avoid picture noise, we
recommend setting [LONG SHUTTER
NR] in the [CUSTOM] menu to [ON]
before taking pictures. (P87)
• The manual exposure assistance does not
appear.
• If you press the shutter button fully when
the shutter speed is slow, the shutter
speed on the screen counts down.
• We recommend using a tripod when the
shutter speed is slow.
• If the exposure is not adequate, the
aperture value and the shutter speed turn
red when the shutter button is pressed
halfway. The aperture value and the
shutter speed flash in the viewfinder.
(They do not flash when the flash is
activated.)
• You cannot set the following items in
manual exposure.
– AUTO [ ], AUTO/Red-eye
reduction [ ], Slow sync. [ ]
and Slow sync./Red-eye reduction
[ ] on the built-in flash
– [AUTO] in ISO sensitivity (The ISO
sensitivity is automatically set to
[ISO100] when you switch from [AUTO]
to Manual exposure.)
– Exposure compensation
• When you use a lens with no aperture
ring, press [FUNC.1] and then rotate the
command dial to set the aperture.
The exposure is
adequate.
