*If the difference between the manual setting and the metered value is greater 
than 6 EV, "-u-" (under) or "-o-" (over) flashes in the viewfinder's LCD panel. 
*Exposure compensation cannot be used while in the manual mode. 
*When the difference between the manual setting and the metered value is 
displayed in the viewfinder's LCD panel while in the manual mode and the 
exposure compensation dial is set to a position other than "0", the value 
displayed is the difference between the manual setting and the metered value 
plus the exposure compensation value. This has no effect on the exposure. 
X Mode (X) 
This mode fixes shutter speed at the sync speed 
of 1/125 sec. In this position, the dials lock and 
cannot be rotated. (See pages 63-65.) 
Time Mode (T) 
This is a mechanically controlled mode for long 
exposures. It consumes no battery power. (See 
pages 55-56.) 
 
*In the "X" exposure mode the lock function 
is activated. Press the exposure mode dial 
lock release button while turning the 
exposure mode setting dial. 
There are three exposure metering modes: "A" in which the 
average light of the entire picture area is measured with 
emphasis on the center, "S" in which the light in a spot at the 
center of the picture area is measured, and "A-S" which 
combines these two to automatically switch the mode according 
to the extent of difference between the brightness of the light 
metered in the two modes. The distribution ratio of the exposure 
metering modes is set within an intermediate range. 
See pages 45-46 for Exposure Metering modes. 
See page 47 for Film Advance modes.
