Page S: Shutter-Priority Ae s: Shutter-Priority AE In this mode, you set the shutter speed and the camera automatically sets the aperture to obtain the standard exposure suiting the brightness of the subject.
This is called shutter-priority AE. A faster shutter speed can freeze the action or moving subject. Or a slower shutter speed can create a blurred effect, giving the impression of motion. If the minimum aperture blinks, it indicates overexposure.
Page F: Aperture-Priority Ae f: Aperture-Priority AE In this mode, you set the desired aperture and the camera sets the shutter speed automatically to obtain the standard exposure suiting the subject brightness. This is called aperture-priority AE. To determine the exposure, refer to the exposure level indicator in the viewfinder or use a commercially-available exposure meter.
This method is called manual exposure. In Basic Zone modes, evaluative metering is set automatically. Select the metering mode.
