Specifies The Metering Mode For Manual Exposure; Sets The Maximum And Minimum Shutter Speeds To Be Used - Canon EOS 1D Software Instruction Manual

Specifies the metering mode for manual exposure

Select the metering mode to be specified.
You can specify the metering mode to be used in the manual exposure mode.
When you set the manual exposure mode, the metering mode selected here will be set
automatically. In the manual exposure mode, this enables you to use a metering mode
different from the one used in the AE modes.

Sets the maximum and minimum shutter speeds to be used

Select the maximum and minimum shutter speeds from the list box.
For example, if you set 1/2000 sec. as the fastest shutter speed and 1/60 sec. as the
slowest, the shutter speed range will be 1/2000 to 1/60 sec.
This makes shutter speed selection faster and prevents a slow-speed sync. in aperture-
priority AE mode with the flash.
If you set the maximum and/or minimum shutter speed to one that is not a full-stop
increment (such as 1/750 sec.), the controllable and settable shutter speed range might
not be as exact as you set it. (A slight deviation may occur.) This applies if you also set
Custom Function C.Fn-6-1 and C.Fn-6-2 and set the maximum and/or minimum shutter
speed to one that is not a full-stop increment (such as 1/3200 sec.).
To ensure that a proper flash sync speed is set in the Program AE mode, a shutter
speed range of 1/200 sec. to 1/80 sec. cannot be set.
If safety shift has been enabled (with C.Fn-16), it will override P.Fn-04's shutter speed
range.
