Shooting
Focus
The only focus mode available is MF (Manual Focus). Adjust the focus
manually using the lens.
Note --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Using [Enlrg Display] (GP. 27) or [Focus Assist] (GP. 35) from the
shooting menu will make it easier to check the focus.
P: Program Shift Mode/A: Aperture Priority Mode
P: Program Shift Mode and A: Aperture Priority Mode operate in the same
way as c: Auto Shooting Mode.
ꢀꢂ
S: Shutter Speed Priority Mode
If [Auto] or [Auto-Hi] is selected for the ISO setting, the exposure will be
adjusted to the proper exposure within the ISO range while the camera is in
shutter speed priority mode.
M: Manual Exposure Mode
If [Auto] or [Auto-Hi] is selected for ISO Setting, ISO will be fixed at 200
while the camera is in manual exposure mode.
You can select between B (Bulb) and T (Time) for the shutter speed.
With B, the image is exposed while the shutter release button is pressed
and exposure ends when the button is released. With T, exposure starts
when the shutter release button is pressed and ends when it is pressed
again. In either mode, the camera stops shooting compulsorily once 180
sec. has elapsed.
Note --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
B and T can both be operated using the optional cable switch (CA-1).
ꢀꢃ
Addition of Scene Modes
[Miniaturize], [High Contrast B&W], [Soft Focus], [Cross Process], [Toy
Camera], and [Electronic Shutter] have been added to Scene Mode.
[Electronic Shutter] allows you to take pictures without worrying about the
shutter release sound or vibrations. You can select a shutter speed between
1/8000 sec. and 1 sec.
Caution ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
• Take precautions for dealing with camera shake when using [Electronic
Shutter] as camera shake may occur due to differences in exposure times
between the top and bottom halves of the screen. It is not suitable for use
with moving subjects.
• You cannot set the ISO to 200 when using the [Electronic Shutter].
ꢀꢄ
Enlarging pictures
Pressing and holding down the MENU/OK button enlarges and displays the
center. Pressing and holding down the MENU/OK button again enlarges the
center and displays the enlarged part over the entire screen. Pressing and
holding the MENU/OK button again returns to normal display.
You can set the display magnification by pressing and holding down the t
(Self-timer) button or by selecting [Magnification Ratio] from the shooting
menu. Select from [2×], [4×], or [8×] using the +/- buttons, and then press
the MENU/OK button.
You can move the enlarged view area using the direction keys (+/-/Fn1/
Fn2).
ꢀꢅ
Note --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
• The display returns to the normal display when exposure compensation is
executed, or with the Direct button, in Enlarged View mode.
• If AE Lock is turned on before the entire image is enlarged, AE will
continue to run during Enlarged View, and pictures will be captured at
the locked AE settings.
• You can register [Enlrg Part] and [Enlrg All] to the [Set Fn1/Fn2 Button] in
the Key Custom Settings menu.

Note --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
• [ISO-LO] is equivalent to ISO 100 ([Electronic Shutter] of Scene Mode is
equivalent to ISO 125). However, the dynamic range gets narrower and
the higher brightness levels make whiteout more likely to occur.
• When [Auto] is selected and the flash is used, the sensitivity used will gain
up to ISO 800 equivalent.
• When [Auto] is selected and the flash is not used, the minimum and
maximum values for the ISO sensitivity will be ISO 200 and ISO 400.

in order to prevent camera shake. Select from [Auto], [1/2], [1/4], [1/8],
[1/15], [1/30], [1/60], or [1/125]. The shutter speed will not drop below the
set speed while the flash is being used.
Note --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
• The maximum shutter speed setting that works with the flash is 1/180
sec. The flash cannot be used with shutter speeds faster than this setting.
