• When the shutter speed is slower, use a tripod.
• When shooting an indoor sport, select a higher ISO sensitivity.
Notes
• The (Camera shake warning) indicator is not indicated in shutter speed priority
mode.
• The higher the ISO sensitivity, the more conspicuous the noise.
• When the shutter speed is one second or more, noise reduction (Long Exposure NR)
will be done after shooting. You cannot do any further shooting during the reduction.
• Press the button when you shoot with the flash. However, when using the flash, if
you close the aperture (a larger F-number) by making the shutter speed slower, the
light of the flash will not reach distant subjects.
2 Select the shutter speed with the
control dial.

3 Adjust the focus and shoot the
subject.
The aperture is automatically adjusted to
obtain correct exposure.
• When the camera judges that the proper
exposure is not obtained with the
selected shutter speed, the aperture
value flashes. In such cases, adjust the
shutter speed again.
