Different combinations of shutter speed and aperture
value can be selected without changing the exposure
by rotating the main command dial (“flexible

sub-command dial.
D (Manual) (E7)
Use to control the exposure according to shooting
requirements.
• When adjusting the aperture value or shutter speed,
the degree of deviation from the exposure value
measured by the camera is displayed in the exposure
indicator. The degree of deviation in the exposure
indicator is displayed in EVs (–3 to +3 EV in
increments of 1/3 EV).
• When the degree of deviation of the exposure value is below –2 EV or above +2
EV, the exposure indicator is displayed in red.
• The shutter speed can be adjusted by rotating the main command dial and the
aperture value can be adjusted by rotating the sub-command dial.
