D (Manual) Mode

Set the shutter speed and aperture value, and shoot pictures.

1

Rotate the mode dial to D.

2

Press the multi selector K, and choose the
shutter speed setting.

The active setting switches between shutter speed and

aperture each time the multi selector

K is pressed.

At speeds slower than 1/4 s, the shutter speed indicator

turns red (

A53).

3

Rotate the command dial to choose
the shutter speed value between
1/2,000 s and 30 s.

When adjusting aperture or shutter speed,

the degree of deviation from the exposure
value measured by the camera is displayed
for a few seconds in the exposure display.

The degree of deviation in the exposure

display is shown in EVs (-2 to +2 EV in
increments of 1/3 EV).
A display similar to that illustrated at right
indicates that the picture will be overexposed
by 1 EV (+1).
