Olympus E-5 Introduction Manual

Exposure

The camera sets the optimum aperture value automatically for the shutter speed you have

selected. Set the shutter speed depending on the type of effect you want. A higher shutter

speed allows you to capture a fast-moving subject without blur, and a slower shutter speed

blurs a moving subject, creating a feeling of speed or motion. Set the shutter speed

depending on the type of effect you want.

While holding down the MODE button, turn the

main dial to set the shooting mode to S. Turn

the main dial (or sub dial) to set the shutter

speed

The picture looks blurred:

j The possibility of camera shake spoiling your picture increases greatly during macro or ultra-

telephoto shooting. Raise the shutter speed or use a monopod or tripod to stabilize the camera.

j When the shutter speed is slow, camera shake is more likely to occur. You can reduce camera

shake by using the image stabilizer.

g“Image stabilizer” (P. 62)

To change the exposure adjustment interval:

j This can be set in 1/3 EV, 1/2 EV or 1 EV increments. g“EV STEP” (P. 111)

a fast action

fast action scene.
This blurring will
give the
impression of
dynamic motion.
