Manual Exposure

You can shoot with the desired exposure setting by adjusting both the shutter speed and aperture.

Hint

You can change the shutter speed and aperture (F-value) combination without changing the set exposure value (Manual shift).

Assign [AEL hold] or [AEL toggle] to a desired key using [

Custom Key] or [ Custom Key], and then turn the control dial or

control wheel while pressing that key.

Note

The Metered Manual indicator does not appear when [ISO] is set to [ISO AUTO].

When the amount of ambient light exceeds the metering range of the Metered Manual, the Metered Manual indicator flashes.

The SteadyShot warning indicator does not appear in manual exposure mode.

The brightness of the image on the screen may differ from the actual image being shot.

Set the mode dial to M (Manual Exposure).

Select the desired shutter speed by turning the control wheel.

Select the desired aperture value by turning the control dial.

You can switch the functions of the control dial and the control wheel using MENU →

(Camera Settings2)

→ [Dial/Wheel Setup].

You can also set [ISO] to [ISO AUTO] in manual exposure mode. The ISO value automatically changes to

achieve the appropriate exposure using the aperture value and shutter speed you have set.

When [ISO] is set to [ISO AUTO], the ISO value indicator will blink if the value you have set is not suitable for

appropriate exposure. If this happens, change the shutter speed or aperture value.

When [ISO] is set to other than [ISO AUTO], use MM (Metered Manual)* to check the exposure value.

Toward +: Images become brighter.

Toward -: Images become darker.

Indicates under/over for appropriate exposure. It is displayed using a numerical value on the monitor and with a metering indicator on

the viewfinder.
