ter speed of 1/60 second or a non-dedicated external
flash unit, set the shutter dial to the [ X ] (1/60 of second)
position.
* Exposure Warning
If the subject is too bright or too dark, the selected shutter
speed will blink in the viewfinder as a warning as shown.
When the subject is too bright, choose a smaller aperture;
when it is too dark, choose a larger aperture. When the
shutter speed indication stops blinking, you can take a pic-
ture. If both shutter and aperture blink, It means that the
exposure is out of metering range, unable to obtain a cor-
rect exposure even if the aperture is adjusted. Select a
darker subject or use a flash if it is too dark.
