• Each press of the cursor button 3 switches between
Aperture Setting and Shutter Speed Setting.
• Depending on the [Shutter Type] setting, the shutter speed range varies. (P189)
Optimising the ISO sensitivity for the shutter speed and aperture value
When the ISO sensitivity is set to [AUTO], the camera sets the ISO sensitivity
automatically so that the exposure will be appropriate for the shutter speed and aperture
value.
• Depending on recording conditions, an appropriate exposure may not be set or the ISO
sensitivity may become higher.
Manual Exposure Assistance
