When switching from one priority to another
under the same exposure conditions, it is
possible that the new camera-selected var
iable will differ a half step from the corres

and f/5.6 in the shutter-speed priority AE
mode may become 1/180 sec. at f/5.6 in the
aperture priority AE mode under the same
conditions. This is due to the fact that the
camera-selected value is rounded off to half
steps in the display. However, since the
camera actually controls its variable stepless-
