This mode gives you more creative control, allowing you to set the
aperture and shutter speed manually. To check the exposure, refer to the
exposure differential.

speed.
b : The aperture value increases.

a : The shutter speed increases.
c : The shutter speed decreases.
Aperture range:

• When the shutter button is halfway
pressed, the difference (ranging from
-3.0 to +3.0 EV) between the exposure
determined by the currently selected
aperture and shutter speed compared to
the exposure level considered optimal
by the camera is displayed.
• If the exposure differential appears in
red, it indicates that the exposure
differential is less than -3.0 EV or more
than +3.0 EV.
TIPS
• Pressing the [ button will show the
exposure compensation bar, as seen in
the diagram on the right.
Note
• To avoid camera movement, It is recommended that you use a tripod when
taking pictures requiring a slow shutter speed.
• The shutter speeds that can be set vary depending on the aperture value.
