P: Programmed Auto
In programmed auto, the camera automatically adjusts shutter speed and
aperture according to the amount of light available, producing optimal
exposure in most situations. Adjustments to exposure can be made using
exposure compensation ( 36) or exposure bracketing ( 109).
Flexible Program
In programmed auto, different combinations of shutter speed and aperture
can be selected by rotating the command dial (fl exible program). Each com-
bination of shutter speed and aperture will produce the same exposure.
Restoring Default Values for Shutter Speed and Aperture
Default values for shutter speed and aperture can be restored by rotating the com-
mand dial until the asterisk (“
*
”) is no longer displayed. Default values can also be
restored by selecting another mode or turning the camera off.
