ture according to the subject brightness to

This mode allows you to take pictures by
utilizing the depth-olfield effect of a lens.
< Manual Exposure: M >
ln this mode, you can select both the shut-
ter speed and aperture you want to obtain
your intended results and effects. Because
the exposure you have set is displayed in
the viewfinder, you can take intentionally
over- or underexposed pictures without dif-
ficulty.
r lf you are using an AE lens that is not an MM type, you cannot
take pictures in the PRoGRAM (PROGRAM HIGH and PROGRAM
LOW)or Tv mode.
. When an AE lens is mounted on the camera, it switches
automatically to the Av mode even if it has been set to the
PROGRAM (PROGRAM HIGH/LOW) or Tv mode. Since such an
automatic function is provided, the camera switches automatical-
ly to the Av mode when the Main Switch is at ON, even if you
have made lens interchange between MM type lenses. Therefore,
set the PROGRAM (PROGRAM HIGH/LOW) or Tv mode again, or
change the lens with the Main Switch at OFF.
