Operation Manual

PA
In both P mode and PA, the depth index at the bottom of the viewfinder
screen will show roughly how in-focus the background will appear in your
final print. If the indicator is all the way to the right, everything from your
main subject to infinity will be in focus. If the indicator is to the left, only
your subject will be sharp.
When you move the rear control dial, you can change the aperture setting
of the programmed exposure and, if the proper shutter speed is available,
the camera will maintain a correct exposure. At the same time, the
indicator in the depth index will move to show you approximately how
your changes will effect your photo.
If you do not touch any of the camera controls for 30 sec, the camera
will return to P mode automatically.
The shutter speed display will blink if the required speed is beyond the
camera's range. If "8000" blinks, move the indicator to the right; if "30"
blinks, move the indicator to the left.
If the metering indicators blink in the viewfinder data panel, the
light level is beyond the coupling range of the camera and lens. In bright
light, attach a neutral density filter; in low light, return to P mode.
