Shutter Priority
You can express the movement of a moving subject in various ways by adjusting the
shutter speed. You can adjust the shutter speed also during movie recording.
1 Set the shooting mode to (Shutter Priority).
2 Select the desired value by turning the control wheel.
3 Adjust the focus and shoot the subject.
The aperture is automatically adjusted to obtain proper exposure.
• You cannot select [Flash Off] and [Autoflash] in [Flash Mode]. When you want to fire the flash, raise the
flash by pressing (Flash pop-up) button. When you do not fire the flash, push down the flash.
• The (SteadyShot warning) indicator does not appear in shutter speed priority mode.
• When the shutter speed is 1 second or longer, noise reduction will be done after shooting for the same
amount of time that the shutter was open. You cannot shoot any more while noise reduction is in
progress.
• If proper exposure cannot be obtained after setup, the aperture value on the shooting screen blinks.
Although you can shoot as it is, resetting is recommended.
• The brightness of the image on the LCD screen may differ from the actual image being shot.
• When using an A-mount lens (sold separately), you can adjust the shutter speed when focusing manually
during movie recording.
• If you shoot an image using the camera’s fastest shutter speed, the screen may display uneven exposure,
depending on the shooting conditions. To avoid uneven exposure, change the shooting conditions (shift
the shutter speed one step lower, etc.) before shooting.
Notes
z Shutter speed
When a faster shutter speed is used, a moving subject such as a
running person, cars, and sea spray appears as if they are
stopped.
When a slower shutter speed is used, a trailing image of the
movement of the subject is captured to make more natural and
dynamic image.
