Well, I don't have a copy of the manual at hand, but I'd guess that
shifting one of the settings would bias the automatic selection to
a setting that was one or more steps above or below whatever the
camera decided was the optimum value, while changing that setting
would override the automatic algorithms and select an explicit value.

Usually, changing is a direct input whereas shifting is an indirect 
input, so for example, if you change the shutter speed, either the 
aperture or ISO will shift to maintain correct exposure.


But I could be wrong

P 104 of the manual is discussing the E-dial, and it makes a distinction 
between changing T, A or ISO, versus shifting them. I don't understand the 
difference.
