157 Advanced Operations In Creative Zone modes, you can set the shutter speed and/ or aperture to set the exposure as desired. By changing the camera settings, you can obtain various result s. The M icon at the upper right of the page title indicates that the function is available only in Creative Zone modes ( d / s / f / a / F ).
158 The camera automatically sets the shutter speed and aperture to suit the subject’s brightness. This is called Program AE. *< d > stands for Program. * AE stands for Auto Exposure. 1 Set the Mode Dial to < d >. 2 Focus the subject. Look through the viewfinder and aim the AF point over the subject.
159 d : Program AE If the “ 30" ” shutter speed and the lower f/number blink, it indica tes underexposure. Increase the ISO speed or use flash.
160 In this mode, you set the shutter speed and the camera automatically sets the aperture to obtain the st anda rd exposure suiting the brightness of the subject. This is called shutter- priority AE. A faster shutter speed can freeze the action or a moving s ubject.
161 s : Shutter-Priority AE If the lower f/number blinks , it indicates underexposure. T urn the < 6 > dial to set a slower shutter speed until the aperture stops blinking or set a higher ISO speed. If the higher f/number blinks , it indicates overexposure.
162 In this mode, you set the desired aperture and the camera sets the shutter speed automatically to obtain the standard exposure suiting the subject brightness. This is called aperture-priority AE. A higher f/ number (smaller aperture hole) will make more of the foreground and background fall within acceptable focus.
163 f : Aperture-Priority AE The aperture opening (diaphragm) changes only at the moment when the picture is taken. Otherwise, the aperture remains fully open. Therefore, when you look at the sce ne through the view finder or on the LCD monitor , the depth of field will look narrow.
164 In this mode, you set both the shutter speed and aperture as desired. T o determine the exposure, refer to the exposure level indicator in the viewfinder or use a commercially-a vailable exposure meter . This method is called manual exposure. * < a > stands for Manual.
