Shooting
For functions available in this mode, see page 224.
Please note that camera shake becomes a factor at low
shutter speeds. If the camera shake warning
appears
in the center of the LCD monitor, secure the camera to a
tripod before shooting.
The aperture value and shutter speed change according
to the zoom state as follows.
Aperture
Shutter Speed
(seconds)
F 2.8 to 1/1250
Wide Angle F 3.2 - 4.0 to 1/1600
F 4.5 - 8.0 to 1/2000
F 4.8 to 1/1250
Telephoto F 5.6 - 7.1 to 1/1600
F 8.0 to 1/2000
The fastest shutter speed for flash synchronization is 1/
500 second. The camera automatically resets the
shutter speed to 1/500 second if a faster speed is
selected (p. 69).
Shutter Speed Display
The numbers in the table below indicate the shutter
