[PURPOSE]
With the EOS 620, you can change the
automatically-set shutter speed/aperture com­
binations of the program AE mode. This func­
tion is particularly useful when you need a
specific shutter speed or aperture while
shooting in the program AE mode.
Be sure to set the main switch to the “A" or
“(<•>)” position. (At the green “O” position, the
program shift function cannot be used.
[SETTING]
Simply turn the electronic input dial until the
desired shutter speed or aperture value ap­
pears after pressing the shutter button halfway
to meter the subject. For example, when you
need a fast shutter speed suddenly to freeze a
fast-moving subject while shooting In the pro­
gram AE mode, turn the electronic input dial to
set a fast shutter speed such as 1/500 second.
• Once the shutter button is pressed halfway,
you can remove your finger because the
display will be held on for approximately
eight seconds.
