S MODE - SHUTTER PRIORITY
48
In S mode, you select the shutter speed and the camera
automatically sets the aperture required for proper exposure.
Use S mode when you want to control the blur caused by
subject movement.
1. Open the control-panel
door.
2. Press the exposure-mode
button until S appears in
the data panel.
3. Turn the control dial to
select the shutter speed.
• Press the program-reset button
to return to fully automatic
operation.
• If the aperture display in the data panel blinks,
the required setting is outside the aperture
range of the lens. Turn the control dial until
the blinking stops.
• The number 60, or 125, displayed in the data panel stands for
1/60th or 1/125th of a second.
S Mode Flash
When the built-in flash is up, it will fire each time a picture is
taken. When the built-in flash is down, it will not fire.
Press the flash-mode button
to turn the flash on.
• Flash operation in the S mode
is the same as P mode. The
camera automatically sets the
aperture and the shutter speed.
To cancel the flash, push
the flash down.
