Shutter speed setting dial
The shutter speed setting dial should be set to
"OFF" when the camera is not in use. In this
setting, the exposure meter is switched off and
the electronic shutter release blocked, preventing
unnecessary battery drain.
In the program modes
T and m the shutter
speed between 1/2000 s and 4s must be set
manually by turning the setting dial
[26]
. Half
values can also be set.
In the
P program mode, the shutter speed setting
influences the tendency of the automatic program
mode.
In program modes
A and A , the shutter speed
setting dial can be engaged at any value except
"B" or "100 ". The shutter speed is
automatically computed to values between
1/2000 s and 16s.
When using non-system flash units, the shutter
speed must be set to "100
". In the "B" setting,
the shutter remains open for a long as the
exposure release button is pressed down. The
symbol "bulb" is displayed in the viewfinder.
In "B" and "100
", the shutter can be released
without battery power. In these settings, no
exposure metering occurs (except TTL-flash
exposure metering), even if batteries have been
inserted.
