Page 18: Shooting
Shooting Mode P: Program Shift Setting the mode dial to P (program shift mode) allows you to select a combination of aperture value and shutter speed. When the ISO setting is set to [Auto] or [Auto-Hi], the camera will adjust the ISO sensitivity automatically to obtain the optimal exposure. The diagram in the following page gives an approximated estimate of the shift range for various combinations of aperture values and shutter speeds. The shift range changes depending on the exposure value (EV). In this example, the flash mode is set to [Flash Off ], and the ISO setting is set to [ISO100]. For the largest aperture value, it is used together with the ND filter. In this case, the degree to which the background is blurred does not change. The degree of blurring is expressed as the aperture value (F value) even when an ND filter is used. - Page 19 : Wide : Tele Ev10 Ev11 Ev12 Ev13 Ev14 Ev15 Ev16 Ev17 Ev18 Ev19 F15.4 F7.0 F5.6 F5.6 F3.5 F2.8 F1.4 1/15 1/30 1/60 1/125 1/250 1/500 1/1000 1/2000 1/4000...
