P, S, A and M modes
Shooting in S (Shutter-Priority Auto)
1 Rotate the mode dial to S.
2 Rotate the command dial to choose
the shutter speed value between
1/2,000 sec. and 8 sec.
3 Focus and shoot.
At default setting, the camera automatically selects the
focus area containing the closest subject, from nine focus
areas, and adjusts focus accordingly (A 105).
B S (Shutter-Priority Auto) Mode
• If the selected shutter speed would result in the picture being over- or underexposed, the shutter-
speed display will flash when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. Choose another
shutter speed and try again.
• At speeds slower than 1/4 sec, the shutter speed indicator will turn red to show that noise
reduction (A 109) is recommended to reduce “noise” in the form of randomly-spaced, brightly
colored dots.
B Note on Shutter Speed
When [Continuous], [BSS], [Continuous flash] or [Multi-shot 16] is selected for [Continuous] (A101),
or when a setting other than [Off] is selected for [Auto bracketing] (A104), the slowest shutter
speed available is down to 1/2 sec.
B Shutter Speed
A shutter speed of 1/2,000s is only available when the camera is zoomed all the way out.
