Using Exposure Control
Two types of Exposure modes M (Programmed au-
to) and E (Aperture-priority auto) are available. M
and E modes also allow you to control ISO Sensitiv-
ity (P.45), white balance (P.46), and the options in
the Shooting menu (P.78).
M
Programmed Auto
Flexible Program
•In M mode, different combinations of shutter speeds and
apertures can be selected by pressing the multi selector
right (Flexible program). Then, press the multi selector left
to decrease the shutter speed and right to increase the
shutter speed. While Flexible program is in effect, the
shutter speed and aperture are displayed in yellow (other-
wise, they are displayed in white).
When returned to Shooting mode, an asterisk (“*”) appears next to M and the set values of the
shutter speed and aperture also appear.
To deactivate Flexible program, press the multi selector left or right until the shutter speed and
aperture are displayed in white, or rotate the mode dial to a different setting. Turning the camera
off also deactivates Flexible program.
