Program shift
In program AE mode, you can change the
preset aperture value and shutter speed
without changing the exposure. This is
called program shift.
You can make the background more blurred
by decreasing the aperture value or record
a moving subject more dynamically by
slowing the shutter speed when taking a
picture in program AE mode.
• Press the shutter button halfway and then
press

on the screen if program shift is activated.
• To cancel program shift, turn the camera
off or rotate the command dial up and
down until the program shift indication
disappears.
