Specifications

When you desire the camera not to alter the aperture you initially set for certain purpose, disengage the crossover
system by sliding the crossover switch (A) out over the camera body. If the setting in use is not proper, the fastest
shutter speed (1000) indication will flash to indicate overexposure. The slowest speed (16 ) will flash for
underexposure. When proper exposure is desired, turn the aperture ring until the flashing ceases.
Selecting the AE Mode
C. Programmed AE - With this mode, the camera sets both the shutter speed and aperture accordance with lighting
conditions.
1. Set the shutter speed dial at the ·"A" setting. :'
2. Press the white button and lock the aperture ring by rotating the ring until the button locks at the index mark.
3. Press the shutter button partway. "P" appears in the viewfinder to indicate proper exposure at a hand-holdable fast
shutter speed selected by the camera.
* Slow Shutter Speed Warning
Often when you are shooting in poor lighting conditions and selected shutter speed is too slow for hand-held shooting,
the speed indication will appear alongside the "P" to warn you. When slow shutter speed warning is given, mount the
camera on a tripod or hold the camera steady on a firm support.
The slow speed warning varies by the focal length of the lens in use. With a 50mm lens, the warning appears when
shutter speeds drop below 1/30 sec.
