Setting the Aperture (continued) • If the shutter speed shows in red in the LCD monitor, the image is under exposed (insufficient light) or overexposed (too much light). Adjust the aperture value using the main dial until the shutter speed display turns to white. • Depending on the zoom position, certain aperture values may not be available. • Functions Available in Each Shooting Mode (p. 208) • Please note that camera shake becomes a factor at low shutter speeds. If the camera shake warning appears in the LCD monitor, secure the camera to a tripod before shooting. • In this mode, the shutter speed with synchronized flash is 1/60 second to 1/250 second. The aperture value setting may therefore be changed automatically to match the synchronized flash speed even if its value was set previously. • For the correlation between aperture value and shutter speed, see page 78.
