Setting the Shutter Speed
When you set the shutter speed in the shutter speed-priority AE
mode, the camera automatically selects an aperture value to match
the brightness. Faster shutter speeds allow you to catch an
instantaneous image of a moving subject while slower speeds
create a flowing effect and allow you to shoot without a flash in dark
areas.
1
Turn the mode dial to Tv.
z The shutter speed will show on the display panel.
It will also be displayed on the LCD Monitor if the
monitor is on.
2
Turn the main dial and select a
shutter speed.
3
Shoot the image.
z The correct exposure has been set if the
shutter speed and aperture value show in
white on the LCD monitor.
z If the aperture value is shown in red on
the LCD monitor, the image is
underexposed (insufficient light) or
overexposed (too much light). Adjust the
shutter speed using the main dial until the
aperture value display turns to white.
If you set [Safety Shift] to [On] in the Rec.
menu, the shutter speed will shift to the
correct speed automatically (Safety Shift
function (p. 86)).
z You can change the automatically
selected combinations of shutter speeds
and aperture values without altering the
exposure (p. 106).
