CPU L enses When using a CPU lens equipped with an aperture ring, lock the apertur e ring at the min i mum aperture (highest f/-number).
77 T aking Photographs—Exposure P: Auto Multi Program In this mode, the camera automatically adjusts shutter speed and aperture ac cord ing to a built-in program ( 78) for optimal exposure in most sit- u a tions.
78 T aking Photographs—Exposure If the fl ash-ready indicator ( ) blinks in the viewfi nder , the fl ash can be used for ad- ditional lighting. The fl ash-ready indicator will not be displayed if Off is selected for Custom Setting 20 ( Flash sign ).
79 T aking Photographs—Exposure S: Shutter -Priority Auto In mode S , you choose the shutter speed while the camera au to mat i cal ly se- lects the aperture that will pr oduce the optimal exposure. Shutter speed can be set to values between 30 s and 1 / 8,000 s.
80 T aking Photographs—Exposure Changing from Mode M to M ode S If you select a shutter speed of or (long time exposure) in mode M and then select mode S without changing the shutter speed, the shutter -speed display will fl ash and the shutter can not be r eleased.
81 T aking Photographs—Exposure A: Aperture-Priority Auto In mode A , you choose the aperture while the camera contr ols shutter speed for optimal exposure. Small apertur es (high f/-numbers) increase depth of fi eld, bringing both the main subject and back gr ound into focus.
82 T aking Photographs—Exposure M: Manual In mode M , the user controls both shutter speed and apertur e. Shut ter speed can be set to values between 30 s and 1 / 8,000 s, or the shutter can be held open indefi nitely for a long time-exposure ( ). Aperture can be set to val ues between the minimum and maximum values for the lens.
83 T aking Photographs—Exposure The Flash - Read y Ind icat or If the fl ash-ready indicator ( ) blinks in the viewfi nder , the fl ash can be used for ad- ditional lighting. The fl ash-ready indicator will not be displayed if Off is selected for Custom Setting 20 ( Flash sign ).
84 T aking Photographs—Exposure Autoexposure Lock When center -weighted metering is used, an area in the center of the frame is assigned the greatest weight when determining exposur e. Similarly , when spot metering is used, exposure is based upon lighting conditions in the se- lected focus area.
85 T aking Photographs—Exposure 3 Keeping the AE-L/AF-L but ton pressed, re com pose the pho to graph and shoot. Metere d Ar ea In spot metering, exposure will be locked at the value meter ed in a 2.3-mm (0.09˝) cir - cle centered on the selected focus ar ea.
