when the exposure is not adequate, the 
aperture value and the shutter speed turn 
red. The aperture value and the shutter 
speed blink on the Viewfinder. (They do 
not blink when the flash is activated.)
• When most of the subject is bright, such 
as during fine weather or snow, the 
recorded pictures may become dark. In 
these cases, compensate the exposure 
towards positive. (P40)
• The ISO sensitivity cannot be set to 
[AUTO]. (The ISO sensitivity is 
automatically set to [ISO100] when you 
switch from [AUTO] to Aperture-priority

ring, press [FUNC.1] and then rotate the 
command dial to set the aperture.
