Basic photography
11. Focus priority AE photography
(Fig. 23)
This is the mode for automatically setting a
designated F stop and changing shutter speed.
This is an excellent feature for use in photography
where you are taking depth of field into
consideration because of the F stop held at a fixed
point.
Turn power on (Fig. 5), turn shutter dial 撮 and
set the exposure mode to AE.
Pull out the lens hood ⓐ, turn the focus ring ⓑ
and set to the F-stop value.
★ Shutter speed is set automatically to a correct
speed in line with the focus that has been set.
Look through the finder 晒, turn focus ring ⓒ
and adjust focus.
Press the shutter release button 殺 down
halfway to light the indictor inside the finder.
The indicator showing automatically set shutter
speed (correct value) will now light.
★ The light meter will stay on for about 15
seconds and the power will then go off
automatically and the indicators will go off. To
light them again press the shutter button down
halfway.
★ The AE lock can also be operated. See Fig. 31.
Press the Shutter Release Button all the way
down to take the picture. The film will advance
one frame.
★ If the shutter speed should go beyond the
linked range (correct value) the LED indicator
“4” or “4000” will rapidly blink (Fig. 24). Change
the focus value at this time.
