2
Turn the e-dial to adjust the

aperture value.

The set values are displayed in the
status screen and viewfinder.
• Turn the e-dial while pressing the mc button to change the EV
compensation value. (p.107)
• The aperture value can be set in increments of 1/3 EV or 1/2 EV. Set the
exposure steps in [1. EV Steps] of the [A Custom Setting 1] menu. (p.108)
• The proper exposure may not be obtained with the selected aperture value
when the sensitivity is not set to [AUTO] (p.90).
Exposure Warning
If the subject is too bright or too dark,
the shutter speed will blink in the status
screen and viewfinder. When the
subject is too bright, set the aperture smaller (larger number), and
when too dark, open the aperture further (smaller number). Once
blinking stops, you can take a picture with proper exposure.
Use a commercially available ND (Neutral Density) Filter (p.305) if the
subject is too bright. Use a flash if it is too dark.
