ADVANCED FUNCTIONS
CHANGING TO AUTOMATIC SENSITIVITY MODE
The camera is set in AUTO mode at the factory, so there is no need to change
anything to use this mode when you first begin. This is the best setting for
most picture taking. The status is confirmed on the LCD monitor display.
You can set this function during shooting with the viewfinder.
1. Press the MENU button and use the lr buttons to select
Sensitivity.
2. Select AUTO by using the ud buttons.
SETTING LIGHT SENSITIVITY MANUALLY
You can change the sensitivity to manual control. Use this mode when you
expect blurring problems from camera motion, when you need to control
depth of field and when you want to control FLASH range.
1. Press the MENU button and use the lr buttons to select
Sensivity.
2. Using the ud buttons, you may select the desired sensitivity from
[100] [200] or [400].

MAKING EXPOSURE SETTINGS
You adjust exposure to help control how much light falls on the CCD. It
influences the brightness of the entire image. You usually don't need to make
manual adjustments, but it is possible to increase + or decrease - the
exposure to suit a particular purpose.
It is recommended that these adjustments be used when shooting against
the sun or when you have any very bright background where the automatic
sensors may not work well.
ADJUSTMENTS
Effects of Exposure Adjustment

The exposure adjustment range is from -2.0 EV to +2.0 EV during programmed
shooting. There are 9 steps of .05 EV each. You can confirm the setting on the

while shooting through the VIEWFINDER.
