Operations
The Creative zone features shooting modes that let
you select the shutter speed or aperture value and
change the exposure yourself, providing you with
more flexibility to set up the camera for a variety of
shooting styles. This chapter describes how to make
effective use of each of these functions.

represents the Quick Control Dial.

will show the exposure setting for approximately 4 seconds on
the LCD panel and viewfinder.
● The AE lock, exposure compensation, AEB, bulb, and depth-of-
field check functions operate only in Creative zone modes.
● The Menu function Quality, AEB, Custom WB, Parameters, and
