index (red line) to the desired position. The following modes are
available according to the position of the shutter dial.

Manual shutter speed select button
In the Metered Manual mode, select the desired shutter speed by
depressing either of the two buttons next to the shutter dial.
The digital figure on the shutter speed LCD indicator In the
viewfinder increases or decreases step by step as you press the
buttons. The front button stops at 1000 (1 /1000 sec.), and
the rear button at 1 5" (15 secs.).
Precautions for shutter speed
If you shoot at shutter speeds slower than 1 /60 sec. (30 — 15 on
the LCD), you may occasionally get blurred pictures. If you
couldn't use a faster shutter speed due to light conditions, the use
of a tripod or flash unit is recommended. The use of film with
higher sensitivity will also help avoid such low shutter speeds.
