The "Program Line" menu option simply selects the program mode bias. Normal gives a very balanced average setting for aperture and shutter, Hi Speed biases program mode towards high shutter speeds and large apertures and Depth the opposite. MTF mode attempts to optimise the aperture to achieve best quality, the MTF information is stored in the FA and I think F lenses, it's not really applicable to earlier lenses. > b) Sensitivity correction This function allows automatic effective ISO correction, it acts like a very course program mode and is next to useless if you are using any kind of external metering as you never know what effective ISO the camera is set at. > Here are some more questions > *To get DOF preview, should I have to use custom > function.
