21. SHUTTER BIAS PROGRAM AE PHOTOGRAPHY
The shutter bias program AE photography is actually a combination of the program AE photography and
shutter speed priority AE photography. (Fig. 72) Use this mode to avoid shutter speeds lower than the
pre-selected shutter speed. This is particularly useful in sports photography.
For example, set the Shutter Speed Dial at 250 to avoid any shutter
speed slower than 1/250 sec. When the subject is bright enough, any
shutter speed between 1/250 and 1/2000 sec. may be selected
according to the brightness of the subject. You will see the selected
shutter speed as well as F-stop number in the Viewfinder. (Fig. 73)
If the brightness of the subject is not enough even at full open
aperture, a slower shutter speed will be automatically selected to
obtain correct exposure.
Set the minimum desired shutter speed by pushing the Up
or Down Button. Your pre-selected shutter speed is shown
by the blinking indicator on the LCD Meter Display in the
Viewfinder. The row of indicators in sequence, short of, or
beyond the blinking indicators, show a shutter speed
suggested for the conditions. (Fig. 75)
