Shooting Long Exposures (Bulb)
● Shots are exposed for as long as you hold the shutter button all the
way down. The elapsed exposure time is displayed during exposure.
● Mount the camera on a tripod or take other measures to keep it
still and prevent camera shake. In this case, also disable image
stabilization.
● Images from long bulb exposures may have more noise and look
grainy. Noise can be reduced by choosing [
5] tab → [Long exp.
noise reduction] → [AUTO] or [ON].
● When [Touch Shutter] is set to [Enable], shooting is started by touching
the screen once and stopped by touching it again. Be careful not to
move the camera when touching the screen.
Adjusting the Flash Output
● You can also access the [Built-in ash settings] screen when the ash
is up by pressing the button and immediately pressing the
button.
Recording Movies at Specific Shutter Speeds and Aperture
Values (Movie Manual Exposure)
● Some shutter speeds may cause ickering on the screen when
recording under uorescent or LED lighting, which may be recorded.
● Large aperture values may delay or prevent accurate focusing.
● 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.
● You can check the ISO speed in [AUTO] mode by pressing the
shutter button halfway. If standard exposure cannot be obtained with
your specied shutter speed and aperture value, the exposure level
mark moves, indicating the difference from standard exposure. The
exposure level mark is shown as [
] or [ ] when the difference from
standard exposure exceeds 3 stops.

drag AF settings] → [Positioning method], and the area available for
