T(Time):

At this mechanical setting, the shutter stays open until

the dial is rotated to another setting, making it ideal for really

long time exposure. To avoid unnecessary battery drain, follow

this procedure: turn the power switch @ off and make certain
the LCD is not displayed in the finder, then trip the shutter using
the backup mechanical release lever ®.

X (X-sync):

Provides 1/80 sec. speed, the proper synchro

nization speed for any electronic flash unit.

To set the shutter speed dial, rotate it until the desired setting

click-stops opposite the index line ®; the dial is locked at the

A and X settings to prevent accidental shifting of the setting. To

move the dial off a locked setting, push the locking button @ as
you rotate the dial. Intermediate settings should not be used.
