Manual Exposure (M)
Manual mode should be used whenever you want full creative control over
the exposure settings. In this mode, you select the shutter speed and
aperture and the camera will tell you whether your settings will provide an
over-, under-, or correctly-exposed picture.
1. Refer to p.46 (Changing Exposure Mode) and select M.
2. To set the shutter speed, turn the front control dial to the right for faster
shutter speeds or to the left for slower. To set the aperture, turn the rear
control dial to the right for smaller apertures or to the left for larger.
• Both The shutter speed and aperture displays will change in half-stop
increments.
