Still Images
• With slow shutter speeds, there will be a delay before you can shoot
again, as the camera processes images to reduce noise.
• When shooting at low shutter speeds on a tripod, you should set [IS
Mode] to [Off] (p. 120).
• Maximum shutter speed with the flash is 1/2000 second.
If you specify a faster speed, the camera will automatically reset the
speed to 1/2000 second before shooting.
• Orange display of aperture values when you press the shutter button
halfway indicates that the settings deviate from standard exposure.
Adjust the shutter speed until the aperture value is displayed in white,
or use safety shift (p. 125).

• You can customize camera operation so that turning the 7 dial changes the
shutter speed (p. 129).
