Exposure Warning
If the subject is too bright or too dark,
the shutter speed will blink in the
viewfinder and on the LCD panel. If the
subject is too bright, set the aperture
smaller (larger number), and when too dark, open the aperture further
(smaller number). Once blinking stops, you can take the picture.
If both the shutter speed and aperture value are blinking, this
indicates being out of metering range and the proper exposure
cannot be obtained even if the aperture is adjusted.
Use an ND (Neutral Density) filter if the subject is too bright.
Use a flash if it is too dark.
