Check exposure in the electronic analog exposure displays in the viewfinder and
in the control panel on top of the camera as shown below (the illustration below
shows the display that appears in the control panel on top of the camera). Adjust
shutter speed and aperture until the desired exposure is achieved. If the limits of
the camera’s metering system are exceeded, the electronic analog exposure dis-
plays will flash.
