3 Rotate the command dial to set the selected
item (aperture or shutter speed) to the de-
sired value. The amount the photograph
will be over- or under-exposed at the se-
lected setting is displayed in the control panel and LCD
monitor.
If sensitivity is set to AUTO when shutter-priority auto or manual expo-
sure is used, sensitivity will be fixed at ISO 100 equivalent and will not vary
with lighting conditions. This ensures that the desired exposure will be
achieved. For more information on sensitivity settings, see:
“Advanced Photography: Sensitivity (ISO Equivalency)”
Control panel display is
in EVs, rounded to
nearest EV (display lasts

placed by exposure count display). If photograph would be over- or
under-exposed by more than 9 EV, display shows flashing +9 (overex-
posure) or –9 (underexposure).
LCD monitor display shows values between –2 and +2 EV in
increments of
