Basic

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.

1

Press the shutter button halfway and display the aperture
value and shutter speed value on the screen.

2

While the values are displayed (about 10 seconds), perform
the Program Shift by rotating the rear dial.

It will switch between Program Shift operation and Exposure
Compensation operation

(P88)

every time the rear dial is pressed while the values are

displayed.

Rotate the rear dial to display the [Expo.Meter]

B.

(P166)

The Program Shift indication

A

appears on the screen when Program Shift is activated.

To cancel Program Shift, turn the camera off or rotate the rear dial until the Program Shift
indication disappears.
Program Shift is easily canceled by setting [Fn Button Set] on the [Custom] menu to [One Push
AE].

(P116)

Example of Program Shift
[When the interchangeable lens (H-PS14042) is used]

Note

EV is an abbreviation of [Exposure Value].
The EV changes with the aperture value or the shutter speed.

If the exposure is not adequate when the shutter button is pressed halfway, the aperture value and
shutter speed turn red and blink.

Program Shift is canceled and the camera returns to normal Program AE Mode if more than
10 seconds pass after Program Shift is activated. However, the Program Shift setting is memorized.

Program Shift will only allow adjustments to be made when there is an adequate amount of light.

Program Shift is available in all [Sensitivity] settings except [

].
