Controlling Exposure
Shutter Speed Priority Auto
Exposure Mode
When you set the desired shutter speed in Shutter Speed Priority AE mode,
the camera selects the appropriate aperture value for correct exposure.
You can achieve stop action effects by selecting a fast shutter speed, or
express the feeling of motion speed for a moving subject by selecting a slow
shutter speed.
1. Rotate the D-Dial to the desired setting in the Drive area.
2. Set the Mode Selector lever to S.
3. Lightly press the Shutter button to verify the focus, and rotate the
S-Dial to set the shutter speed.
4. Verify the setting in the viewfinder.
If the appropriate aperture value is beyond the range of the lens in
use, due to the subject being too bright or too dark, the aperture
value indicator blinks. If the subject is too bright, set the shutter speed
to a faster one. If the subject is too dark, set the shutter speed to a
slower one until the indicator stops blinking. You may also adjust the
ISO setting, which causes the exposure value to change.
