MANUAL EXPOSURE SETTING – M
The following manual settings for shutter speed and aperture are a
good choice:
– to create a special image mood that can only be achieved with a
very specific type of exposure
– to ensure a perfectly identical exposure for multiple images with
different cropped sections
Select the operating mode M (see p. 75)
Tap the shutter button
• The values for shutter speed and aperture are displayed in
white.
• The light balance scale is additionally displayed. It covers a
range of ±3 EV (exposure value) in 1⁄3EV increments.
Settings within ±3 EV are indicated by white lines on the
scale, settings outside this range by red lines.
• The exposure compensation is done using the scale of the
light balance:
– No white scale lines = correct exposure
– White scale lines to the left/right of the center mark =
under or overexposure by the displayed value or by more
than ±3EV (Exposure Value)
Select the desired aperture value via the right setting wheel
Select the desired shutter speed value via the left setting wheel
Shutter release
Note
The screen image will show an exposure simulation if P-A-S-M is
selected in the menu item Exposure Preview.
EXPOSURE CONTROL
(FUNCTIONS FOR AUTOMATIC EXPOSURE)
EXPOSURE SIMULATION
With factory settings in place, the brightness of the screen image
in the three automatic exposure modes P, S and A matches the
relevant exposure settings.
You can now assess and control the effect of the relevant exposure
setting on the image before taking the picture.
This function is also available for the manual exposure setting M:
Select Exposure Preview in the main menu
Select P-A-S (only in automatic, aperture priority and shutter
speed priority mode) or P-A-S-M (also for manual setting)
Notes
• Depending on ambient lighting conditions, the brightness of the
screen image may differ from that of the actual pictures, despite
the settings described above. The screen image will appear
considerably darker than the – correctly exposed – picture. That
is particularly the case in long-term exposures.

This will apply as long as the subject brightness and the set exposure don’t
result in excessively low or high brightness values.
