You can select the method for setting the exposure (shutter speed, aperture, and ISO sensitivity) when shooting movies. With [P/A/S/M Mode], you can select from the P/A/S/M modes in the same way as the exposure mode for still images. With [Flexible Exp. Mode], you can individually switch between the automatic and manual settings for aperture value, shutter speed, and ISO sensitivity, like the exposure control system of a professional camera.

  1. MENU (Shooting) → [Shooting Mode][Exposure Ctrl Type] → desired setting.
