Setting the Electronic Shutter
Setting the Shutter Mode/Speed
ÁThe shutter speed during shutter mode and standard mode is set by the SHUTTER switch.
ÁDuring SYNCHRO SCAN mode, the shutter speed can be set beforehand at the SYNCHRO
SCAN page of the setting menu. The shutter speed can also be set by the UP and DOWN
buttons during SYNCHRO SCAN mode. (In addition, if S. SCAN SEL on the FUNCTION 2/5
page of the setting menu is set to ON, the shutter speed can also be varied by the SUPER
IRIS and MODE CHECK switches on the side panel. However, note that the SUPER IRIS and
MODE CHECK functions do not operate at this time.)
ÁThe shutter speed selection range can be limited to the required range and whether to use
special operation modes (SYNCHRO SCAN or SUPER V) can be selected at the SHUTTER
SPEED page of the setting menu.
1 Perform the operations outlined in “Changing the Display Mode” (page 56) and set the dis-
play mode to “2” or “3” at the VF DISPLAY page of the setting menu.
2 Press the SHUTTER switch from the ON position to the SEL side. The current shutter set-
ting appears in the setting change message display position on the viewfinder screen.
Ex.: 1/120, 1/61.7, etc.
3 Press the SHUTTER switch to the SEL side repeatedly until the desired mode or speed ap-
pears. When all modes and speeds can be displayed, the display changes in the order
shown below. If the required shutter speeds and modes have been designated beforehand,
only the designated speeds or modes appear.
ÁWhen the unit is shipped from the factory, SUPER V mode is not specified and is there-
fore not displayed.
