Taking Pictures of Moving Objects

By changing the shutter speed, you can change the way someone run-

ning or a car in a race comes out. This special effect is done in the M

mode with the manual shutter speed feature.

The faster the shutter speed (1/500, 1/1000 sec, etc.), the more an

object in motion seems frozen.

The slower the shutter speed (1/15, 1/30 sec, etc.), the more an object

in motion seems to be flowing.

Shutter Speed

Shutter speed is displayed as a unit of time: 1/15, 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, (sec) ….

Manual Exposure

Setting shutter speed and aperture yourself lets you take highly expressive photographs.

Set the mode dial to "M".

Set aperture with the left / right point of the jog dial.

Set shutter speed with the top / bottom point of the jog dial.

Press the shutter release button down halfway.

The green lamp inside the viewfinder will light up to indicate the cam-

era is ready to take the picture.

The exposure level will be displayed on the control panel.

If exposure is off by more than ±2 EV, a triangle blinks on the panel.

If metering is impossible, all the exposure indications blink.

Press the shutter release button down all the way.

NOTE

• When you specify slow shutter, the available range of the film speed

(ISO number) will be limited. Plus, this can make images noisier

according to the sensitivity of the CCD.
