Modes

PASM

The mode dial is the main control of 

your camera and defines in which 

shooting mode you are working. Here 

you can decide how your camera 

should work and support your 

shooting style. Decide whether you 

would like to work in fully automatic 

mode or completely manual. 

P Mode

S Mode

Use the P mode when you would like  

to let the camera decide on aperture 

and exposure time. However, you  

have always the option to overrule  

the settings. 

Use S mode when you would like to 

control the shutter speed in case you 

are shooting fast moving object. You 

don’t have to worry about the aperture 

as the camera is choosing the one fitting 

to your shutter speed.
