3. Shutter speed and aperture value display
The shutter speed and aperture value are displayed as described below.
• The shutter speed display indicates shutter speeds between "4000" (1/4000 second) and
"32" " (32 seconds). When the camera's exposure mode is set to "Av" or "P", the shutter
speed value with respect to the aperture is displayed in steps of 1/2, and when the expo-
sure mode is set to "Tv" or "M", the set shutter speed value is displayed at every step
(may also be displayed in steps of 1/2 with modes "Tv" and "M" in the "CF" mode).
• The aperture value is displayed in steps of 1/2 within the aperture range of the currently
mounted lens. When operating with a precision of greater than 1/2 step, the closest value
is displayed. For example, when the aperture is 3.3, the aperture is displayed "3.5".
