j The optimum exposure cannot be obtained. For details, see “Exposure warning
display” ( gP. 134).
The camera sets the optimum aperture value automatically for the shutter speed you have
selected. Set the shutter speed depending on the type of effect you want. A higher shutter
speed allows you to capture a fast-moving subject without blur, and a slower shutter speed
blurs a moving subject, creating a feeling of speed or motion. Set the shutter speed depending
on the type of effect you want.
Set the mode dial to S and turn the main dial (or sub dial) to set the shutter speed.
