To avoidexceeding 1/200 second in flash shots, the camera may adjust theaperture value.● [ ]: Aperture value (size of the opening made by the diaphragm inthe lens)● The aperture changes only at the moment you shoot, and it remainsopen at other times. For this reason, the depth of field shown on thescreen looks narrow, or shallow. To check the area in focus, assign [ ](depth-of-field preview) to a button and press it.Specific Shutter Speeds and Aperture Values ([M] Mode)● Available aperture values vary by lens.● When the ISO speed is fixed, an exposure level mark based onyour specified value is shown on the exposure level indicator forcomparison to the standard exposure level. The exposure level markis shown as [ ] or [ ] when the difference from standard exposureexceeds 3 stops.● The ISO speed is determined and screen brightness changes whenyou press the shutter button halfway after setting the ISO speed to[AUTO]. If standard exposure cannot be obtained with your specifiedshutter speed and aperture value, the ISO speed is displayed inorange.● After you set the shutter speed and aperture value, the exposure levelmay change if you adjust the zoom or recompose the shot.● When the ISO speed is fixed, screen brightness may changedepending on your specified shutter speed and aperture value.However, screen brightness remains the same when the flash is upand the mode is set to [ ].● Exposure may not be as expected when the ISO speed is set to[AUTO], because the ISO speed is adjusted to ensure standardexposure relative to your specified shutter speed and aperture value.Reducing Noise at Slow Shutter Speeds● The following [Long exp. noise reduction] items are available.OFF Disables noise reduction for long exposures.AUTOApplies noise reduction if the noise that tends tooccur in long exposures at shutter speeds of onesecond or slower is detected.ON Always applies noise reduction at shutter speeds ofone second or slower.● There may be a delay before you can shoot again, as the camerareduces noise in images.● Images shot at ISO speeds of 1600 or higher may be grainier with[Long exp. noise reduction] set to [ON] than [OFF] or [AUTO].Specific Shutter Speeds and Aperture ValuesSpecific Shutter Speeds ([Tv] Mode)● There may be a delay before you can shoot again when [Long exp.noise reduction] is set to [ON] or [AUTO] and the shutter speed is1 second or slower, because images are processed to remove noise.● We recommend deactivating image stabilization when shooting at slowshutter speeds on a tripod.● Maximum shutter speed with the flash is 1/200 second. If you specifya faster speed, the camera will automatically reset the speed to1/200 second before shooting.● Orange display of the aperture value when you press the shutterbutton halfway indicates that the standard exposure has not beenobtained. Adjust the shutter speed until the aperture value is displayedin white, or use safety shift.● [ ]: Time value
