Select the manual exposure menu.
@: The optimum shutter speed and aperture size are set according to
the brightness of the subject (aperture and shutter variable program
AE).
Example: For simple shooting with minimum setup, using the
camera’s automatic settings.
T: This allows you to set a specific shutter speed and enable/disable
the ND filter. The camera automatically sets an appropriate aperture
size based on this setting (shutter speed priority AE).
Example: To set a fast shutter speed for capturing a clear image
of a fast-moving object, or to set a slow shutter speed to shoot
the flow of a background scene.
By using the flash in combination with a slow shutter speed, you
can create beautiful photographs of people against a
background night scene (slow synchro photography).
g: This allows you to set a specific aperture size and enable/disable
the ND filter. The camera automatically sets an appropriate shutter
speed based on this setting (aperture priority AE).
Example: To open the aperture for portraits with a blurred
background (for a shallow field depth), or to close the aperture
for a clear foreground and background (for a deep field depth).
,: This allows you to set a specific shutter speed, aperture size and
enable/disable the ND filter (manual exposure control).
Example: When shooting in a dark location without using the
flash, set the shutter to stay open for a longer time (slow shutter).
When used for shooting nighttime scenes, you can capture lights
flowing across the image.
