Programmed AE Mode
• The camera automatically chooses an optimum com­
bination of shutter speed and aperture according to
the subject brightness, allowing you to take a flash
photograph with ease.
• The shutter speed automatically changes to approxi­
mately 1/100 sec. or to a slower speed which does
not cause camera shake. The slowest shutter speed
depends on the focal length of the lens fitted to the
camera. When a Pentax non-AF lens is used, the cam­
era uses the shutter speed of 1/100 second.
Shutter-Priority AE Mode
• Shutter speeds slower than 1 /100 of second can be
set.
• In this mode, the aperture automatically changes ac­
cording to the ambient brightness, making flash pho­
tography easy.
Aperture-Priority AE Mode
In this mode, the shutter speed automatically changes
with the ambient brightness, making flash photography
easy. The shutter speed changes in the range from
1/100 sec. to a slower shutter speed which does not
cause camera shake. The slowest shutter speed de­
pends on the focal length of the lens in use. The shutter
speed of 1/100 sec. is automatically set when a
Pentax non-autofocus lens is in use.
Metered Manual Mode
• When using the built-in flash in the Metered Manual
Mode, any combination of aperture and shutter speed
slower than 1/100 can be set. In this mode, the ex­
posure of the background can be controlled by the
manual exposure while the flash properly exposes the
foreground subject.
