Program Auto

Allows you to shoot with the exposure adjusted automatically (both the shutter speed and the aperture value).

You can set shooting functions such as [ISO].

Program Shift

You can change the shutter speed and aperture (F-value) combination by rotating the control dial, without changing the appropriate exposure that is set by this product. This function is available when you do not use the flash.

  • “P” on the screen changes to “P*” when you turn the control dial.
  • To cancel program shift, turn the control dial to return the indication to “P”.

Note

  • According to the brightness of the environment, the program shift may not be used.
  • Set the shooting mode to another one than “P” or turn off the power to cancel the setting you made.
  • When the brightness changes, the aperture (F value) and shutter speed also change while maintaining the shift amount.
