It is also possible to intentionally over- or underexpose the subject for a special visual effect or a photographic theme. When the Metered Manual mode is selected, the CENTIC panel confirms it by activating its [MAN.] , [►j shutter speed and [►] aperture indicators.

When you press the shutter release button halfway down, the viewfinder displays "M" and a shutter speed. If, as illustrated above, two indicators - one solidly lit and another blinking - appear at the same time, it indicates an incorrect exposure. If this occurs, adjust either the shutter speed or the aperture so that only one solidly lit indicator remains. This indicates that the exposure is correct. 2. To determine the shutter speed first Turn the lens aperture ring one way or the other until only one solidly lit indicator remains in the viewfinder. If the correct exposure cannot be obtained this way, reset the shutter speed. • 24

the
subject
for
a
special
visual
effect
or
a
photo-
graphic
theme.
When
the

confirms
it
by
activating
its

release
button
halfway
down,
the

If,
as
illustrated
above,
two
indicators
—
one
solidly
lit
and
another
blinking
—
appear
at
the
same
time,
it
indicates
an
incorrect

If
this
occurs,
adjust
either
the
shutter

or
the
aperture
so
that
only
one
solidly
lit
indicator

This
indicates
that
the

is
correct.

To
determine
the
shutter
speed
first
Turn

cannot
be
obtained
this
way,
reset
