In addition to the electronic

shutter for the automatic exposure

control, the ES has a mechanical

shutter for speeds 1/60 X for

electronic flash synchronization,

1/125, 1/250,  1/500. 1/1000 sec.

plus B (Bulb).

To operate at any one of these

speeds, just turn the shutter dial

from "AUTOMATIC" to the desired

speed setting.  Now the electric

circuit and the TTL meter circuit

are off.
