Manual Aperture Control Shooting
When the manual aperture control dial Is pulled
out, the EE mechanism is cancelled and the ex
posure is manually set by rotating this dial. For
manual aperture control shooting, too, exposure
is checked through the viewfinder when you pull
the shutter release lever one step. Manual aper
ture control is used when you want a certain ex
posure setting such as for single frame shooting
or panning, or when you stress an exaggerated
effect such as back lighting, high-key or low-key
effects.

aperture
dial
is
pressed in, it is set for EE shooting.

ing so will not damage the mechanism.
