• When the exposure is correct, the
shutter speed is displayed in green.
When the correct exposure cannot be
obtained, the shutter speed is displayed
in red.
Note
• To avoid camera movement, you are recommended to use a tripod when taking
pictures requiring a slow shutter speed.
Setting a fast shutter speed lets you
capture fast-moving action as though it
was stopped in motion.
Setting a slow shutter speed blurs a
moving subject, giving the impression of
movement.
