(p. 204)
• Please note that camera shake becomes a factor at low shutter speeds. If the
camera shake warning appears in the center of the LCD monitor, secure the
camera to a tripod before shooting.
• The fastest shutter speed for flash synchronization is 1/250 second. The camera
automatically resets the shutter speed to 1/250 second if a faster speed is selected.
• The aperture value and shutter speed change according to the zoom state as
follows.

Shutter Speed Display
The shutter speeds from 2000 to 4 in the display are actually the denominator of a
fraction of a second. For example, 160 indicates a speed of 1/160 second. For
slower speeds, quote marks indicate the decimal place, so that 0"3 indicates 0.3
second and 2" indicates 2 seconds.
2000 1600 1250 1000 800 640 500 400 320 250
200 160 125 100 80 60 50 40 30 25 20 15
