.[SHOOTING SETTING] (Still Photography)
Adjust shooting options for still photography.
To display shooting settings, press [MENU/OK] in the photo shooting display and select the A ([SHOOTING SETTING]) tab.
The options available vary with the shooting mode selected.
[SELF-TIMER]
Choose a shutter release delay.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| R[2 SEC] | The shutter is released two seconds after the shutter button is pressed. Use to reduce blur caused by the camera moving when the shutter button is pressed. The self-timer lamp blinks as the timer counts down. |
| S[10 SEC] | The shutter is released ten seconds after the shutter button is pressed. Use for photographs in which you wish to appear yourself. The self-timer lamp blinks immediately before the picture is taken. |
| [OFF] | Self-timer off. |
If an option other than [OFF] is selected, the timer will start when the shutter button is pressed all the way down. The display shows the number of seconds remaining until the shutter is released. To stop the timer before the picture is taken, press [DISP/BACK].
Stand behind the camera when using the shutter button. Standing in front of the lens can interfere with focus and exposure.
The self-timer turns off automatically when the camera is turned off.
[SAVE SELF-TIMER SETTING]
If [ON] is selected, the chosen self-timer setting will remain in effect after a picture is taken or the camera is turned off.
| Options | |
|---|---|
| [ON] | [OFF] |
[SELF-TIMER LAMP]
If [ON] is selected, the self-timer lamp will light during self-timer photography. Select [OFF] when shooting night scenes or in other situations in which you would prefer that the lamp remain unlit.
| Options | |
|---|---|
| [ON] | [OFF] |
[INTERVAL TIMER SHOOTING]
Configure the camera to take photos automatically at a preset interval.
-
Highlight [INTERVAL TIMER SHOOTING] in the A ([SHOOTING SETTING]) tab and press [MENU/OK].
-
Use the focus stick (focus lever) to choose the interval and number of shots. Press [MENU/OK] to proceed.
-
Use the focus stick to choose the starting time and then press [MENU/OK]. Shooting will start automatically.
Interval timer photography cannot be used at a shutter speed of “bulb” or with multiple exposure photography. In burst mode, only one picture will be taken each time the shutter is released.
Use of a tripod is recommended.
We recommend using an AC-5VJ AC power adapter.
The display turns off between shots and lights a few seconds before the next shot is taken.
The display can be activated at any time by pressing the shutter button.
To continue shooting until the number of shots taken equals the number of exposures remaining at the time interval-timer photography started, set the number of shots to ∞.
[INTERVAL TIMER SHOOTING EXPOSURE SMOOTHING]
Select [ON] to automatically adjust exposure during interval-timer photography to prevent it changing dramatically between shots.
| Options | |
|---|---|
| [ON] | [OFF] |
Large changes in subject brightness may make exposure appear erratic. We recommend that you choose shorter values for [INTERVAL TIMER SHOOTING] > [INTERVAL] with subjects that brighten or dim dramatically during shooting.
In manual mode (mode [M]), exposure smoothing is only available if an AUTO option is selected for [ISO].
[AE BKT SETTING]
Adjust exposure bracketing settings.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| [FRAMES/ STEP SETTING] |
Choose the number of shots in the bracketing sequence and the amount exposure is varied with each shot.
|
| [1 FRAME/ CONTINUOUS] |
|
| [SEQUENCE SETTING] |
Choose the order in which the shots are taken. |
[FILM SIMULATION BKT]
Choose the three film simulation types used for film simulation bracketing (a[FILM SIMULATION]).
[FOCUS BKT SETTING]
Choose from [AUTO] and [MANUAL] focus bracketing modes (aZ [FOCUS BKT]).
[PHOTOMETRY]
Choose how the camera meters exposure (a[Metering]).
[SHUTTER TYPE]
Choose the shutter type. Choose the electronic shutter to mute the shutter sound.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| t[MECHANICAL SHUTTER] | Take pictures with the mechanical shutter. |
| s[ELECTRONIC SHUTTER] | Take pictures with the electronic shutter. |
| t[E-FRONT CURTAIN SHUTTER] | The camera chooses the mechanical or electronic front curtain shutter according to shooting conditions. |
| u[MECHANICAL + ELECTRONIC] | The camera chooses the mechanical or electronic shutter according to shooting conditions. |
| r[E-FRONT + ELECTRONIC] | The camera chooses the mechanical, electronic, or electronic front curtain shutter according to shooting conditions. |
If t [E-FRONT CURTAIN SHUTTER] is selected, t [MECHANICAL SHUTTER] will automatically take effect at high shutter speeds.
When using the electronic shutter, note the following:
- Distortion may be visible in shots of moving subjects.
- Distortion may also be visible in hand-held shots taken at high shutter speeds; use of a tripod is recommended.
- Banding and fog may occur in shots taken under fluorescent lights or other flickering or erratic illumination.
- When taking pictures with the shutter muted (a[SHUTTER VOLUME]), respect your subjects’ image rights and right to privacy.
When using the electronic front-curtain shutter, note the following:
- Faster shutter speeds are more likely to result in uneven exposure and loss of resolution in out-of-focus areas of the frame.
The following restrictions apply when the electronic shutter is used:
- Sensitivity is restricted to values of ISO 12800–100.
- Long exposure noise reduction has no effect.
- The flash will not fire unless pixel-shift multi-shot is enabled.
[FLICKER REDUCTION]
Reduce flicker in pictures and the display when shooting under fluorescent lighting and other similar light sources.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| [ALL FRAMES] | Flicker reduction is applied to all frames continuous shooting frame rate reduces. |
| [FIRST FRAME] | Flicker measurement is taken prior to the first frame only and the same reduction amount is applied to all subsequent frames that flicker may occur. |
| [OFF] | Flicker reduction disabled. |
Flicker reduction increases the time needed to record pictures.
[OFF] is selected for [FLICKER REDUCTION] when the electronic shutter is used.
Flicker reduction is not available during movie recording.
[ISO]
Adjust the camera's sensitivity to light (aSensitivity).
[IS MODE]
Turn image stabilization on or off.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| [CONTINUOUS] | Image stabilization on. |
| [SHOOTING ONLY] | Image stabilization enabled only when the shutter button is pressed halfway (focus mode [C]) or the shutter is released. |
| [OFF] | Image stabilization off; x appears in the display. Choose when the camera is mounted on a tripod or otherwise fixed in place. |
The setting selected with the lens image stabilization switch, if any, takes priority over the setting chosen with [IS MODE].
Note that vibration or camera sounds may be noticeable as image stabilization takes effect.
[35mm FORMAT MODE]
Enabling A[SHOOTING SETTING] > [35mm FORMAT MODE] in the shooting menu sets the picture angle to 35 mm; the change is reflected in the display.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| [ON] | The picture angle is set to 35 mm; the change is reflected in the display. |
| [OFF] | 35 mm format mode disabled. |
| [AUTO] | 35 mm format mode is enabled automatically when a mount adapter that supports automatic detection is attached. |
The D[SCREEN SET-UP] > [DISP. CUSTOM SETTING] item in the setup menu (aCustomizing the Standard Display, [DISP. CUSTOM SETTING]) includes an option (enabled by default) for displaying a [35mm FORMAT MODE] icon.
The H[IMAGE QUALITY SETTING] > [IMAGE SIZE] item in the shooting menu is fixed at O[3 : 2].
