Advanced Operations
In the  < s >   
< F > shooting modes, you can 
select the shutter speed, 
aperture, and other camera 
settings to change the 
exposure and obtain the 
desired result.
 A M  icon at the upper right of a page title indicates a 
function that can be used only in the following modes: < d> 
< s >   .
 After you press the shutter button halfway and let go, the 
exposure values will remain di splayed in the viewfinder and 
on the LCD panel for 4 sec. ( 0).
 For the functions settable in each shooting mode, see page 
456.
Set the < R> switch to the left. 
						

							204
The camera automatically sets the shutter speed and aperture to suit 
the subject’s brightness. This is called Program AE.
* stands for Program.* AE stands for Auto Exposure.
1Set the Mode Dial to < d>.
2Focus on the subject.
 Look through the viewfinder and aim 
the AF point over the subject. Then 
press the shutter button halfway.
 When focus is achieved, the focus 
indicator < o> in the viewfinder will 
light up (in One-Shot AF mode).
 The shutter speed and aperture will 
be set automatically and displayed in 
the viewfinder and on the LCD panel.
3Check the display.
 A standard exposure will be obtained 
as long as the shutter speed and 
aperture displays do not blink.
4Take the picture.
Compose the shot and press the 
shutter button completely.
d: Program AE 
						

							205
d: Program AE
 If the “ 30” shutter speed and the lowest f/number 
blink, it indicates underexposure.
Increase the ISO speed or use flash.
 If the “ 8000” shutter speed and the highest f/number 
blink, it indicates overexposure.
Lower the ISO speed or use an ND filter (sold 
separately) to reduce the amount of light entering the 
lens.
Differences Between < d> and < A> ModesIn the < A> mode, many functions, such as the AF operation and metering 
mode, are set automatically to prevent  spoiled shots. The functions you can 
set are limited. With < d> mode, only the shutter speed and aperture are set 
automatically. You can freely set the AF operation, metering mode, and 
other functions (p.456).
Program Shift In the Program AE mode, you can freely change the shutter speed and 
aperture combination (Program) set automatically by the camera while 
maintaining the same exposure. This is called Program shift.
 To shift the program, press the shutter button halfway, then turn the 
 dial until the desired shutter speed or aperture is displayed.
 Program shift will be canceled automatically when the metering timer 
(0 ) ends (exposure setting display turns off).
 Program shift cannot be used with flash. 
						

							206
In this mode, you set the shutter speed and the camera automatically 
sets the aperture to obtain the standard exposure matching the 
brightness of the subject. This is called shutter-priority AE. A faster 
shutter speed can freeze the acti on of a moving subject. A slower 
shutter speed can create a blurred effect, giving the impression of 
motion.
* < s > stands for Time value.
1Set the Mode Dial to < s>.
2Set the desired shutter speed.
While looking at the LCD panel or in 
the viewfinder, turn the < 6> dial.
3Focus on the subject.
Press the shutter button halfway.
 The aperture is set automatically.
4Check the viewfinder display and 
shoot.
 As long as the aperture is not 
blinking, a standard exposure will be 
obtained.

s: Shutter-Priority AE
If the lowest f/number blinks, it indicates 
underexposure.
Turn the < 6> dial to set a slower shutter speed until 
the aperture stops blinking or set a higher ISO speed.
 If the highest f/number blinks, it indicates 
overexposure.
Turn the < 6> dial to set a faster shutter speed until 
the aperture stops blinking or set a lower ISO speed.
Shutter Speed Display
The shutter speeds from “ 8000” to “4” indicate the denominator of the 
fractional shutter speed. For example, “ 125” indicates 1/125 sec., “ 05” 
indicates 0.5 sec. and “ 15” is 15 sec. 
						

							208
In this mode, you set the desired aperture and the camera sets the 
shutter speed automatically to obtain the standard exposure suiting the 
subject brightness. This is called aperture-priority AE. A higher 
f/number (smaller aperture hole) will make more of the foreground and 
background fall within acceptable focus. On the other hand, a lower 
f/number (larger aperture hole) will make less of the foreground and 
background fall within acceptable focus.
* < f > stands for Aperture value (aperture opening).
1Set the Mode Dial to < f>.
2Set the desired aperture.
While looking at the LCD panel or in 
the viewfinder, turn the < 6> dial.
3Focus on the subject.
Press the shutter button halfway.

The shutter speed is  set automatically.
4Check the viewfinder display and 
shoot.
As long as the shutter speed is not 
blinking, a standard exposure will be 
obtained.

The aperture opening (diaphragm) changes only at the moment when 
the picture is taken. Otherwise, the aperture remains fully open. 
Therefore, when you look at the scene through the viewfinder or on the 
LCD monitor, the depth of field will look narrow.
Press the depth-of-field preview button 
to stop down the lens to the current 
aperture setting and check the depth of 
field (range of acceptable focus).
Depth-of-Field PreviewN
If the “ 30” shutter speed blinks, it indicates 
underexposure.
Turn the < 6> dial to set a larger aperture 
(lower f/number) until the shutter speed blinking stops 
or set a higher ISO speed.
 If the “ 8000” shutter speed blinks, it indicates 
overexposure.
Turn the < 6> dial to set a smaller aperture (higher 
f/number) until the shutter speed blinking stops or set a 
lower ISO speed.
Aperture Display
The higher the f/number, the smaller the aperture opening will be. The 
f/number displayed will differ depending on the lens. If no lens is attached to 
the camera, “ 00” will be displayed for the aperture.
 A higher f/number will make more of the foreground and background fall 
within acceptable focus. However, the viewfinder will look darker.
 While looking at the Live View image (p.256), you can change the 
aperture and press the depth-of-field preview button to see how the 
depth of field changes.
 The exposure will be locked (AE lock) while the depth-of-field preview 
button is pressed.

In this mode, you set both the shutter speed and aperture as desired. To 
determine the exposure, refer to the exposure level indicator in the 
viewfinder or use a commercially-available exposure meter. This 
method is called manual exposure.
*  stands for Manual.
1Set the Mode Dial to < a>.
2Set the ISO speed (p.158).
3Set the shutter speed and aperture.
 To set the shutter speed, turn the 
 dial.

To set the aperture, turn the  dial. If it cannot be set, set the < R> 
switch to the left, then turn the < 6> 
or < 5> dial.
4Focus on the subject.
 Press the shutter button halfway.
The exposure setting will be displayed 
in the viewfinder and on the LCD panel.
 The exposure level mark < h> 
indicates how far the current 
exposure level is from the standard 
exposure level.
5Set the exposure and take the 
picture.
 Check the exposure level indicator 
and set the desired shutter speed and 
aperture.
 If the exposure level exceeds ±3 
stops from the standard exposure, 
the end of the exposure level 
indicator will display  or < J>.
