Subject Too Dark or Too Bright
If the camera is unable to achieve optimal exposure, the shutter-speed and aperture displays will flash
as shown.
Display Problem/solution
Large aperture (low f/-
number)/slow shutter speed
The subject is too dark.
Use a flash.
Small aperture (high f/-
number)/fast shutter speed
Subject is too bright.
The limits of the camera metering system have been exceeded.
Use a third-party ND (Neutral Density) filter to reduce the
amount of light entering the camera.
Shutter speeds as fast as 1/32000s are available in I
(silent) mode. g“Shooting without shutter sound (Silent
I Settings)” (P.198), “Performing the sequential/self-timer
shooting” (P.190)
When [KISO] is not set to [Auto], optimal exposure may be achieved by changing the setting.
g“Changing ISO sensitivity (ISO)” (P.166)
The aperture value shown when the display flashes varies with the lens and focal length.
