Shutter Speed Display
Shutter speeds are normally set in 1/3-stop increments. From 8000 to 4, the shutter speeds
are displayed as the reciprocal of the actual time values. For example, 125 on the display
indicates a shutter speed of 1/125 seconds. For shutter speeds slower than 4, actual times
are displayed. For example, 0”3 on the display indicates a shutter speed of 0.3 seconds,
and 15” indicates a speed of 15 seconds. The following shutter speeds are available:
8000 6400 5000 4000 3200 2500 2000 1600 1250 1000 800 640 500 400
320 250 200 160 125 100 80 60 50 40 30 25 20 15 13 10 8 6 5 4

IMPORTANT:
Long exposures may add noise and produce a less desirable image. For quality
purposes, single image exposure of more than one second is not recommended.

In addition to 1/3-stop increments,
shutter speeds can also be input in
1-stop or 1/2-stop increments. In
these cases, available shutter speeds
are as follows:
1-stop increments
8000 4000 2000 1000 500 250 125 60
30 15 8 4 0”5 1” 2” 4” 8” 15” 30”
1/2-stop increments
8000 6000 4000 3000 2000 1500 1000 750
500 350 250 200 180 125 90 60 45
