USING VARI-PROGRAM
Programmed exposure control enables the camera’s computer
to automatically adjust both lens aperture and shutter speed for
the correct exposure. The F70/F70D camera’s Matrix Metering
System determines the correct exposure, applying exposure
compensation as deemed necessary by the computer’s
program. However, other factors can affect the picture,
including the use of different shutter speeds and different
apertures.
The F70/F70D's Auto-Multi Program is designed to coordinate
the selection of shutter speed and aperture for average
situations. It guides the exposure control system into using
reasonably high shutter speeds to avoid blur due to camera
shake. The F70/F70D incorporates a versatile Vari-Program
System that gives you the option to choose from different
programs, each designed to accommodate different picture-
taking situations. Please review the concept behind and
recommended use for each program, using each as described,
or in a different way to express your own picture-taking
creativity. Once you understand how each program operates,
you’ll be able to experiment, using each program for an
application different from its originally intended use.
Please note that the effect achieved by using each Vari-
Program can be reproduced with the use of other exposure
control methods such as Shutter-Priority Auto, Aperture-Priority
Auto and Manual. But with Vari-Program control, you allow the
camera’s computer to take care of all exposure control tasks
while you concentrate on composition. This versatility is one of
the highlights of the F70/F70D camera’s advanced exposure
control system.
The F70/F70D's Vari-Program control offers eight programs:
z Portrait Program
x Hyperfocal Program
c Landscape Program
v Close-Up Program
b Sport Program
n Silhouette Program
m Night Scene Program
, Motion Effect Program
For features of each program, see "VARI-PROGRAM
SELECTION GUIDE" on pages 64 to 67.
