3. Set the shutter dial to the desired shutter speed.
• When the shutter release button is depressed half­
way down, the shutter speed and the aperture value
will be displayed in the viewfinder.
• In flash photography, when you use the flash sync
shutter speed of 1/100 second or a non-dedicated
external flash unit, set the shutter dial to the [100^]
(1/100 of second) position.
* Exposure Warning
If the subject is too bright or too dark, the shutter speed
and aperture setting in the viewfinder blink. When the
subject is too bright, choose a faster shutter speed. If it
is too dark, choose a slower shutter speed. When the
shutter speed indication stops blinking, you can take
the picture. If both selected shutter speed and aperture
blink, it means that the exposure is out of metering
range, unable to obtain a correct exposure even if the
shutter speed is adjusted. Select a darker subject if the
■ subject is too bright. Use a flash if it is too dark.
