a, b, c, and d Modes Shooting in b Mode (Shutter-Priority Auto) In shutter-priority auto mode, you choose the shutter speed while the camera automatically selects the aperture that will produce the optimal exposure. Use slow shutter speeds to suggest motion by blurring moving subjects, high shutter speeds to "freeze" motion (A 40). 1 Rotate the mode dial to b. 2 Rotate the command dial to choose the desired shutter speed. Shutter speed displayed in the viewfinder will change. Set shutter speed to the desired value between 1/4,000 s and 30 s. Shutter speed can also be displayed in the Shooting information display by pressing K (L). Set 3 Frame a photograph, focus, and shoot. D Shutter Speed and Camera Shake To reduce or prevent blur caused by camera shake, the shutter speed should be faster than the inverse of lens focal length in seconds. For example, when using a lens with a focal length of 300mm, choose a shutter speed faster than 1/300 s. A tripod is recommended when shooting at slower shutter speeds. To reduce blur, try increasing shutter speed by increasing ISO sensitivity (A 53), using the built-in flash (A 64) or an optional Speedlight (A 150), or by mounting the 42 camera on a tripod, or using a vibration reduction (VR) lens (A 20).
