Specific Shutter Speeds and Aperture Values
Specific Shutter Speeds (Tv Mode)
: Time value
There may be a delay before you can shoot again when [Long exp.
noise reduction] is set to [ON] or [AUTO] and the shutter speed is 1
second or slower, because images are processed to remove noise.
We recommend deactivating image stabilization when shooting at slow
shutter speeds on a tripod.
Maximum shutter speed with the ash is 1/200 second. If you specify
a faster speed, the camera will automatically reset the speed to 1/200
second before shooting.
Blinking display of the aperture value when you press the shutter
button halfway indicates that the standard exposure has not been
obtained. Adjust the shutter speed until the aperture value is displayed
in white, or use safety shift.
Specific Aperture Values (Av Mode)
: Aperture value (size of the opening made by the diaphragm in the
lens)
Blinking display of the shutter speed when you press the shutter button
halfway indicates that the standard exposure has not been obtained.
Adjust the aperture value until the shutter speed is displayed in white,
or use safety shift.
Maximum shutter speed with the ash is 1/200 second. To avoid
exceeding 1/200 second in ash shots, the camera may adjust the
aperture value.
The aperture changes only at the moment you shoot, and it remains
open at other times. For this reason, the depth of eld shown on the
screen looks narrow, or shallow. To check the area in focus, assign [
]
(depth-of-eld preview) to a button and press it.
Specific Shutter Speeds and Aperture Values (M Mode)
: Manual
Available aperture values vary by lens.
When the ISO speed is xed, you can compare your specied value
(indicated by the position where the exposure level mark moves) to the
standard exposure level by pressing the shutter button halfway. The
exposure level mark is shown as [
] or [ ] when the difference from
standard exposure exceeds 3 stops.
After you set the shutter speed and aperture value, the exposure level
may change if you adjust the zoom or recompose the shot.
When the ISO speed is xed, screen brightness may change
depending on your specied shutter speed and aperture value.
However, screen brightness remains the same when the ash is up
and the mode is set to [
].
Exposure may not be as expected when the ISO speed is set to
[AUTO], because the ISO speed is adjusted to ensure standard
exposure relative to your specied shutter speed and aperture value.
Image brightness may be affected by Auto Lighting Optimizer. To keep
the Auto Lighting Optimizer disabled in
mode, add a [ ] mark
to [Disable during man expo] on the Auto Lighting Optimizer setting
screen.
Calculation of standard exposure is based on the specied metering
method.
The following operations are available when ISO speed is set to
[AUTO].
- Turn the
dial when [ ] is shown on the exposure
compensation bar to adjust exposure.
- Press the
button to lock the ISO speed. Screen brightness
changes accordingly.
