Adjusting Settings in Mode P Use the front and rear dials to adjust the following settings. Front dial: Exposure compensation (P. 68) Rear dial: Program shift • Exposure compensation can also be adjusted using the F button. Press the F button and then rotate the front or rear dial. 2 • You can choose the functions performed by the front and rear dials. g G Custom Menu J > [K Dial Function] (P. 218) • You can use the Fn lever to reverse the roles of the front and rear dials.
Choosing aperture 2 (A: Aperture-Priority AE) In this mode, you choose the aperture (f/-number) and the camera automatically sets the shutter speed for optimal exposure according to subject brightness. Lower aperture values (larger apertures) reduce the depth of the area that appears to be in focus (depth of field), blurring the background. Higher aperture values (smaller apertures) increase the depth of the area that appears to be in focus in front of and behind the subject.
Subject Too Dark or Too Bright If the camera is unable to achieve optimal exposure, the shutter-speed display will flash as shown. Display Problem/solution Slow shutter speed 60" F5.6 8000 F5.6 Overexposure. • Choose a higher aperture value. • If the subject is still overexposed at the higher value, the limits of the camera metering system have been exceeded. Use a third-party ND (Neutral Density) filter to reduce the amount of light entering the camera.
Choosing shutter speed (S: Shutter-Priority AE) In this mode, you choose the shutter speed and the camera automatically sets aperture for optimal exposure according to subject brightness. Faster shutter speeds appear to “freeze” fast-moving subjects. Slower shutter speeds add blur to moving objects, lending them a sense of motion for a dynamic effect. Slower shutter speeds… 2 60” 15 Faster shutter speeds… 30 Shooting …produce dynamic shots with a sense of motion. 1 Rotate the mode dial to S.
Subject Too Dark or Too Bright If the camera is unable to achieve optimal exposure, the aperture display will flash as shown. Display Problem/solution Low aperture value 2000 F2.8 125 F22 Overexposure. • Choose a faster shutter speed. Shutter speeds as fast as 1/32000 s are available in silent mode. • If the subject is still overexposed at the higher speed, the limits of the camera metering system have been exceeded.
Choosing aperture and shutter speed (M: Manual Exposure) In this mode, you choose the aperture and shutter speed. You can adjust settings according to your goals, for example by combining fast shutter speeds with small apertures (high f/-numbers) for increased depth of field. 1 Rotate the mode dial to M. 2 Adjust aperture and shutter speed. 2 Shooting 100% S-IS AUTO • At default settings, aperture is selected with the front dial and shutter speed with the rear dial.
Adjusting Settings in Mode M Use the front and rear dials to adjust the following settings. Front dial: Aperture Rear dial: Shutter speed 2 • You can choose the functions performed by the front and rear dials. g G Custom Menu J > [K Dial Function] (P. 218) • You can use the Fn lever to reverse the roles of the front and rear dials.

(B: Bulb/Time) Long Exposures Select this mode to leave the shutter open for a long exposure. You can preview the photo in live view and end the exposure when the desired results have been achieved. Use when long exposures are required, for example when photographing night scenes or fireworks. 2 Shooting “Bulb” and “Live Bulb” Photography The shutter remains open while the shutter button is pressed. Releasing the button ends the exposure.
7 Adjust aperture. • At default settings, aperture can be adjusted using the front dial. 100% S-IS OFF ISO 200 YF 4K 30p B BULB F5.6 G 1:02:03 1023 Aperture Take pictures. • In bulb and live bulb modes, keep the shutter button pressed. The exposure ends when the button is released. • In time and live time modes, press the shutter button all the way down once to start the exposure and again to end it. • The exposure ends automatically when the time selected for [Bulb/Time Timer] is reached.
$ Noise While shooting at slow shutter speeds, noise may appear on screen. These phenomena occur when the temperature rises in the image pickup device or image pickup device internal drive circuit, causing current to be generated in those sections of the image pickup device that are not normally exposed to light. This can also occur when shooting with a high ISO setting in a high-temperature environment. To reduce this noise, the camera activates the noise reduction function.
9 Press the shutter button to start shooting. • Live composite photography will start. The display will be updated after each exposure. 10 Press the shutter button again to end shooting. • Some limitations apply to the choice of ISO sensitivity settings available.

The optional adapter is required. • When you attach or remove the body cap and lens from the camera, keep the lens mount on the camera pointed downward.
MF Clutch Lenses The “MF clutch” (manual focus clutch) mechanism on MF clutch lenses can be used to switch between auto and manual focus simply by repositioning the focus ring. • Check the position of the MF clutch before shooting. • Sliding the focus ring to the AF/MF position at the end of the lens selects autofocus, while sliding it to the MF position closer to the camera body selects manual focus, regardless of the focus mode chosen with the camera.

Optional Accessories Designated External Flash Units When using an optional flash unit designed for use with the camera, you can choose the flash mode using camera controls and take pictures with the flash. See the documentation provided with the flash unit for information on flash features and their use. Choose a flash unit to suit your needs, taking into consideration such factors as the output required and whether the unit supports macro photography.
Wireless remote control flash photography Wireless flash photography is available with compatible flash units that support wireless remote control (RC). The remote flash units are controlled via a unit mounted on the camera hot shoe. Settings can be adjusted separately for the camera-mounted unit and units in up to three other groups. RC mode must be enabled on both the master and remote flash units (P. 287). Enabling RC Mode 1 Set the remote flash units to RC mode and place them as desired.
