GUIDE TO SELECTION OF EXPOSURE MODE

Viewfinder

Indication

Features

1. This is the ideal normal mode for snapshots and general photography.

2. When this mode is set the camera automatically decides both the shutter

speed and the aperture. Fully automatic exposures are possible over a wide

range of subject brightnesses.

3. You can concentrate on following the subject in the viewfinder without

worrying about exposure or shutter speed settings.

4. If you set an intermediate aperture on the lens, the program automatically

becomes a continuously variable program.

1. This is basically an aperture preferred mode, but it is possible to use it also

as a shutter speed preferred system. This mode is the one to select when you

want

to put

your

creative

ideas

into

the

picture.

2. In this mode you can concentrate on special depth of field effects, adjusting

the aperture to determine whether the background, etc., will be blurred or in

clear focus.

Here the background is blurred to make the main subject stand out. (Wide

open lens aperture)

Here the background is also in sharp focus, giving a feeling of greater spa-

ciousness and expansiveness. (Stopped down aperture)

3. You can concentrate on shutter speed effects (blurring with motion, etc.).

Here a fast shutter speed arrests the movement of the subject, giving it a kind

of timelessness. (Wide open aperture)

Here use of a slow shutter speed results in a blurred subject, emphasizing the

sense of speed. (Stopped down aperture)

1. In Manual Mode, both the lens aperture and the shutter speed are set by

hand, giving free reign to your experience and 'feel' for the picture situation.

2. Use when you want to keep the same exposure settings regardless of the

brightness of the subject.

3. Use for

"Bulb"

photography

when

the

shutter

both

opened

and

closed

manually.

4. Use when you are basing the exposure on the values given by a separate

exposure meter.
