P Programmed Auto
In this mode, the camera automatically adjusts shutter speed
and aperture for optimal exposure in most situations. This mode
is recommended for snapshots and other situations in which
you want to leave the camera in charge of shutter speed and
aperture.
Taking Photos in P, S, A, and M Modes
P, S, A, and M modes offer varying degrees of
control over shutter speed and aperture.
Choose a mode and adjust settings according
to your creative intent.

Choosing a Combination of Shutter Speed and Aperture
Although the shutter speed and aperture
chosen by the camera will produce optimal
results, you can also rotate the command
dial to choose other combinations that will
produce the same exposure (“flexible pro-
gram”). U is displayed while flexible program
is in effect.

ISO Sensitivity (P, S, A, and M Modes)
When an “auto” option is selected for ISO sensitivity (0 101), the cam-
era will automatically adjust sensitivity within the selected range if
optimal exposure can not be achieved at the selected shutter speed or
aperture.
