Built-in ND Filter
When the camera’s built-in ND filter is used, the amount of light that enters the
camera while shooting can be reduced in three steps. Use in situations such as when
overexposure results from the subject being too bright. Set whether or not to use the
built-in ND filter to reduce the light in the following shooting modes.
O (low noise night) mode
A, B, C and D modes (including E, F and N modes)
In shooting modes other than the above, the on/off setting of the built-in ND filter
is controlled automatically according to the shooting mode and shooting
conditions, regardless of Built-in ND filter setting.
The icon for the current setting other than Off is displayed on the monitor (A8).
No icon is displayed when the setting is A (auto), scene or movie mode.
C Effects of the Built-in ND Filter
Using the filter may enable the shooting of subjects that are too bright without overexposing the
image. It can also be used in situations such as when you want to slow down the shutter speed at a
low aperture value.
For example, at a shutter speed of 1/2000 second with the correct exposure, if the ND filter is used to
reduce the light in three steps, the speed can be changed to 1/250 second without changing the
aperture value.
