Pictur
e mode
As well as the direction of rotation of the shutter speed thumb-
wheel and aperture setting ring necessary for correct exposure,
the three LEDs in the light balance also indicate underexposure,
overexposure and correct exposure in the following way:
Underexposure by at least one aperture stop; turning to the
right is required
Underexposure by at most half an aperture stop; turning to
the right is required
Correct exposure
Overexposure by at most half an aperture stop; turning to
the left is required
Overexposure by at least one aperture stop; turning to the
left is required
Note:
For shutter speeds slower than 2s the remaining exposure time is
counted down and displayed in seconds after the shutter release.
THE
B
SETTING
With the
B
setting, the shutter remains open for as long as the
shutter release button is held down (up to a maximum of 60s;
depending on the ISO setting).
The exposure meter is disabled; however the digital display in the
viewfinder counts the elapsed exposure time in seconds, for guid-
ance.
Notes:
• Long exposure times can be associated with very heavy picture
noise.
• To reduce this annoying phenomenon, following exposures with
slower shutter speeds (below approx.
1
⁄
30
s) this camera automati-
cally takes a second "black picture" (with the shutter closed). The
noise present in this parallel picture is then digitally “subtracted”
from the data for the real picture.
• This doubling of the “exposure” time can be significant at longer
exposure times, and must be allowed for. During this time the
camera should not be turned off.
VALUES ABOVE AND BELOW THE METERING RANGE
If the exposure meter reading is below its working range in very low
lighting conditions and in manual mode, the left hand triangular
LED ( ) flashes as a warning in the viewfinder, while the right hand
LED ( ) does the same if there is too much light. In aperture
priority mode, the shutter speed is still displayed. If the required
shutter speed is more than the slowest possible 60s or less than
the fastest possible of
1
/
4000
s, these displays also flash. As the
exposure is metered with the working aperture, this situation can
come about by stopping down the lens. Even if you are below the
metering range, the exposure meter remains on for around 30s
after you let go of the shutter release button. If the lighting condi-
tions improve in this time (e.g. through a change in the subject
detail or opening of the aperture), the LED display changes from
flashing to continuously lit, indicating that the meter is ready.
