Metered manual using the bar dot
display in the viewfinder can be
operated with the main dial selecting
shutter speeds and the quick control
dial handling the aperture values.
(Custom Function No. 5 reverses this,
with the main dial handling the
aperture and the quick control dial
inputting shutter speeds.)

Shutter release time lag
is

also minimal.
Shutter
Speeds
The EOS-1's vertical-travel metal
focal-plane shutter provides a full
range
of
electronically-controlled shut-
ter speeds. The blazingly fast 118000
second shutter speed stops practically
anything in mid-flight. Shutter speeds
range in
1/ 3-step increments from
30
seconds to 1/ 8000 second and appear
in the display panel. When shooting in
the bulb mode, elapsed time
is
dis-
played up to a total
of
120
seconds.

Flash
Sync
Speed
The fast flash-sync shutter speed
of
11250 broadens the possibilities
of
daylight fill-in flash photography and
reduces ghost images from fast-
moving flash subjects.

Exposure
Compensation
Conventional manual exposure
compensation adjustments can be set
+ 1 - 3 steps in
113
step increments,
which are confirmed on the display
panel.
Auto
Exposure
Bracketing
Auto exposure bracketing
is
a
way
of
handling tricky exposure problems.
The AEB function automatically
makes three continuous exposures,
shifting the exposure value up and
down from the exposure determined
by
the camera's light meter. The function
can be set within a range
of
+ 1 - 3

steps in 1/ 3-step increments. AEB
is
set according to the film winding
mode, so photographers can control
the release timing. And since it can
only be canceled manually, continuous
auto exposure bracketing
is
possible.
Multiple
Exposures
The multiple exposure function
presets up to nine exposures on the
same frame. The number
of
exposures
is
easily set
by
using the main input dial
and checking operation on the display
panel. The function can be canceled or
reset during mid-operation. Motor
drive-powered continuous multiple
exposures offer a great range
of
creative effects.
