Shutter speed, aperture (F value), ISO speed settings
Select a shutter speed from 1/1600 seconds to 30 seconds.
When zoom is set fully to W, you can select an aperture of F3.3 or F8.0 (when used with the Internal
ND (Neutral Density) Filter).
When zoom is set fully to T, you can select an aperture of F5.9 or F14 (when used with the Internal
ND (Neutral Density) Filter).

Setting the shutter speed and aperture (F value)
The difference between the settings and proper exposure judged by the camera appears as an EV
value on screen.
A: Shutter speed/aperture (F value)
B: EV value
0EV is the value judged as the most suitable by the camera.
When the shutter speed is one second or slower, the shutter speed is indicated by [”], for example,
[1”].
When you set the shutter speed slower, using a tripod is recommended to prevent the effects of
vibration.
When the shutter speed becomes slower than a certain speed, the NR slow shutter function is
activated automatically to reduce image noise, and
appears on the screen.
If you select slow shutter speeds, it takes time to process the data.
Note
If proper exposure is not obtained by your settings, the setting value indicators on the screen will
flash when the shutter button is pressed halfway down. You can shoot in this condition, but
