Recording
∫ About [B] (Bulb)
If you set the shutter speed to [B], the shutter stays open while the shutter button is
pressed fully (up to approximately 60 minutes).
The shutter closes if you release the shutter button.
Use this when you want to keep the shutter open for a long time to take pictures of
fireworks, a night scene etc.
•
We recommend using a tripod or the remote shutter (DMW-RSL1: optional) when you take
pictures with the shutter speed set to [B]. Refer to P268 for information about the remote
shutter.
• If you set the shutter speed to [B], [B] is displayed on the screen.
• When you take pictures with the shutter speed set to [B], use a sufficiently charged battery.
(P24)
• When you take pictures with the shutter speed set to [B], noise may become visible. To avoid
picture noise, we recommend setting [Long Shtr NR] in the [Rec] menu to [ON] before taking
pictures. (P169)
• The Manual Exposure Assistance does not appear.
• This cannot be used when [Electronic Shutter] is set to [ON].
• It can only be used with Manual Exposure Mode.
∫ Constant preview
In Manual Exposure Mode, when [Constant Preview] in the [Custom] menu is [ON], you
will be able to confirm the effects of aperture and shutter speed on the screen. (P91)
•
Close the flash.
• It can only be used with Manual Exposure Mode.
• The brightness of the screen and the recorded pictures may differ. Check the pictures on the
playback screen.
• Rotate the front/rear 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. (P125)
• The shutter speed slower than 1 second is not available when [Electronic Shutter] is set to
[ON].
• The [Sensitivity] is automatically set to [ISO200] when you switch the Recording Mode to
Manual exposure while the [Sensitivity] is set to [AUTO] or [ ] (Intelligent).
• When you use a lens with an aperture ring, the aperture ring setting takes priority.
