Manual Exposure Assistance
The Manual Exposure Assistance is an approximation. We recommend checking the pictures
on the playback screen.
Note
The brightness of the LCD monitor and the recorded pictures may differ. Check the pictures on
the playback screen.
Rotate the control dial to display the [Expo.Meter]. Unsuitable areas of the range are displayed
in red.
If the exposure is not adequate, the aperture value and the shutter speed turn red and blink
when the shutter button is pressed halfway.
Display of the shutter speed will count down when the shutter speed is set to slow and the
shutter button is pressed all the way.
We recommend using a tripod when the shutter speed is slow.
When the flash is activated, the fastest shutter speed that can be selected is 1/160th of a
second. (P82)
The [Sensitivity] is automatically set to [ISO160] when you switch the Recording Mode to
Manual exposure while the [Sensitivity] is set to [AUTO] or [ ] (Intelligent).
When using a lens having an aperture ring, set the position of the aperture ring to [A] to activate
the control dial setting. At positions other than [A], the ring setting will take priority.
The exposure is adequate.
Set to faster shutter speed or larger aperture value.
