Exposure

The camera sets the optimum aperture value automatically for the shutter speed you have

selected. Set the shutter speed depending on the type of effect you want. A higher shutter

speed allows you to capture a fast-moving subject without blur, and a slower shutter speed

blurs a moving subject, creating a feeling of speed or motion. Set the shutter speed depending

on the type of effect you want.

Set the mode dial to

and turn the main dial (or sub dial) to set the shutter speed.

The picture looks blurred:

The possibility of camera shake spoiling your picture increases greatly during macro or ultra-

When the shutter speed is slow, camera shake is more likely to occur. You can reduce camera

shake by using the image stabilizer.

This blurring will

give the

impression of

dynamic motion.
