The camera sets the optimum aperture value automatically for the shutter speed you have
selected. Set the shutter speed depending on the type of effect you want. A higher speed
shutter allows you to capture a fast-moving subject without blur, and a slower shutter speed
blurs a moving subject, creating a feeling of speed or motion.
Set the mode dial to
S
and turn the
control dial to set the shutter speed.

TIPS
The picture looks blurred:
J
The possibility of camera shake spoiling your picture increases greatly during macro or ultra-
telephoto shooting. Raise the shutter speed or use a monopod or tripod to stabilize the camera.
The aperture value indication does not stop blinking after the shutter speed is
changed:
J
If the aperture value indication at the maximum value is blinking, set the ISO sensitivity to a lower
value or use a commercially available ND filter (for adjusting the amount of light).

• If the aperture value indication at the minimum
value is blinking*, the correct exposure has not
been attained (underexposed). Lower the
shutter speed.
• If the aperture value indication at the maximum
value is blinking*, the correct exposure has not
been attained (overexposed). Raise the shutter
speed.
* The aperture value at the moment when its indication blinks varies with the lens type and focal
length of the lens.
A fast shutter
speed can freeze
a fast action
scene without any
blur.
A slow shutter
speed will blur a
fast action scene.
This blurring will
give the
impression of
dynamic motion.
