Specific Shutter Speeds

([Tv] Mode)
Set your preferred shutter speed before shooting as follows.
The camera automatically adjusts the aperture value to suit your
shutter speed.
For details on available shutter speeds, see "Shutter Speed"
(= 260).
• With shutter speeds of 1.3 seconds or slower, there will
be a delay before you can shoot again, as images are
processed to remove noise.
• When shooting at low shutter speeds on a tripod, you
should set [IS Mode] to [Off]
• Maximum shutter speed with the flash is 1/2000 second. If
you specify a faster speed, the camera will automatically
reset the speed to 1/2000 second before shooting.
• Orange display of aperture values when you press the
shutter button halfway indicates that the settings deviate
from standard exposure. Adjust the shutter speed until
the aperture value is displayed in white, or use safety shift
(= 125).
