g10: Extended Shutter Speeds (Mode M)

G button U A Custom Settings menu

Select [ON] for access to a range of slower shutter speeds in mode M.

• When [OFF] is selected, the minimum shutter speed varies with frame rate as follows.

  • 120p: ¹⁄₁₂₅ s
  • 100p: ¹⁄₁₀₀ s
  • 60p: ¹⁄₆₀ s
  • 50p: ¹⁄₅₀ s
  • 30p: ¹⁄₃₀ s
  • 25p: ¹⁄₂₅ s
  • 24p: ¹⁄₂₅ s
• When [ON] is selected, the minimum shutter speeds for frame rates of 60p to 24p drop to ¹⁄₄ s. Those for 120p and 100p do not change.
• Selecting [ON] and choosing a slow shutter speed helps prevent ISO sensitivity rising too high during shots of the night sky and other dark subjects.
• Videos recorded at slow shutter speeds when [ON] is selected will include repeated multiple copies of the same frames.
• To reduce blur caused by camera shake in videos recorded at slow shutter speeds while [ON] is selected, we recommend mounting the camera on a tripod.
