How do I change the exposure setting from 'T' - which gives 60 seconds default to something else?

 

Thanks.

Hi,

 

The 'T' setting can only be changed if you're in Manual mode. In this mode, set the dial to 'T' and when you press the shutter button you start the exposure and when you press a second time you finish the exposure. Please note that the limit time for this is 120 seconds. In Shutter priority mode when you set the dial do 'T' you have a time set of 60 seconds.

 

Again,the manual is quite poor and I found this after making some experiences.

 

You also have a good book (much better than the manual) in hard and soft copy in the link:

I really hope I had help.

 

Cheers,

 

Alexandre.

Hi Alexandre,

My d-lux7 was in manual mode but when I start the shot, it default at 60".

(as it thinks it's in shutter priority)

Any hint will be appreciated.
