In normal recording conditions, set the program
selector to n (Auto). This is the same as the Easy
Recording program, except that you now have the
option of using any of the camera’s manual functions.

Giving priority to shutter speed (shutter-priority:Tv)
Use this program to select the shutter speed.
The camera automatically sets all other values
necessary to give the correct exposure.
When you turn the program selector to Tv, the current
shutter speed is shown in the display. Select your
desired shutter speed by turning the EXPOSURE dial
toward + for a slower shutter or – for a faster shutter.

You can choose 9 shutter speeds between 1/60 and 1/15000 of a second.
When shooting outside on clear, bright days, the camera will often set a large F number to adjust the
amount of light entering the camera, throwing the focus off. Setting a fast shutter speed or decreasing the
amount of light with the ND filter can help correct this.
• If you try to set a shutter speed that is either too high or too low for the shooting conditions, the
indicator flashes in the display. In this case, increase or decrease the setting until the flashing stops, or
turn the ND FILTER ON/OFF as appropriate before changing the setting.
Notes:
• When recording in extreme low-light conditions, we recommend the use of a Canon Speedlite (p. 45) or
Video Light (available as optional accessories, see page 14).
• The Tv values are reset if you turn the power off or change the recording program. If you use the
STANDBY lever, however, the camera remembers your chosen values.
