DVANCED OPERATION
PROGRAM - P
Like full-auto program, program controls both the
shutter speed and aperture required for each
exposure. The operation is the same as described in
the taking-a-picture section on page 21. However,
functions set in this mode will not reset when the
camera is turned off.
If the required exposure is beyond the
shutter speed and aperture range, the
shutter speed and aperture displays blink
on the data panel and in the viewfinder.
In bright conditions, use a neutral density filter on the lens, load a
slower film, or, if using artificial lights, reduce the intensity of the
illumination. In dark conditions, use the built-in flash or load a faster
film.
Custom function 7 allows the shutter speed and aperture
combination to be changed without affecting the total exposure. For
more information on program shift, see page 68.
If the light levels are outside the metering range of the
camera, the metering-mode indicator (p. 58) on the data
panel and in the viewfinder blinks. In dark conditions, use
the camera flash. Under bright light, use a neutral density
filter to control the light level.
