chosen (p. 82).
• If you use the zoom after making settings or change the composition, the
exposure level may change.

brightness may change. If the flash is raised and set to h, the monitor
brightness will not change.

the shutter speed or aperture value (whichever is not currently chosen)
will automatically adjust to obtain the correct exposure (the correct
exposure may not be obtained depending on the settings).
