1.
Set the mode dial to (Manual Exposure).
2.
Turn the control dial to adjust the shutter speed, and turn the aperture ring to select the aperture (F
value).
Select a shutter speed from 1/4000* seconds to 30 seconds. You can also shoot in [BULB]
mode.
* At F5.6 or higher aperture value. The fastest shutter speed at F2.0 is 1/2000 seconds.

Setting the shutter speed and aperture (F value)
The difference between the value you set and the proper exposure judged by the camera appears as a
metered manual (MM) value on the screen.
A
: Shutter speed value
B
: Aperture value
C
: Metered manual (MM)
If you set the exposure value , the images become brighter; toward –, the images become
darker. “0” indicates the appropriate exposure as analyzed by the camera.
Shutter speed of 0.4 seconds or longer is indicated by [”], for example, 0.4”.
When you set the shutter speed slower, using a tripod is recommended to prevent the effects of
vibration.
If you select slow shutter speeds, it takes time to process the data.
Notes
When [ISO] is set to [ISO AUTO] in [Manual Exposure] mode, the ISO sensitivity automatically
changes for proper exposure according to the set shutter speed and aperture (F value).
If proper exposure is not obtained by your settings, the setting value indicators on the screen will
flash. You can shoot in this condition, but exposure readjustment is recommended.
BULB
You can shoot trails with long exposure. [BULB] is suitable for shooting trails of light, such as fireworks.
This camera is compatible with a cable release of the ISO 6053 standard.
1.
Set the mode dial to (Manual Exposure).
2.
Turn the control dial toward the left until [BULB] is indicated.
