[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 459787, member: 12496"] Welcome to the forum. If I understand your question, that is just what P mode does. It sets BOTH shutter speed and aperture automatically. Then when you change one, it changes the other to keep it constant exposure. P mode is a little like full Auto mode, but Auto also sets Auto ISO and Auto white balance and Picture Color Controls. P mode does not, it uses them however you set them (on or off). Try camera A, S, or M modes. In A or S modes, you set one, and it sets the other. In A, S, or P modes, if you want to deviate from that exposure, you use the Exposure Compensation to tweak it to be little different (that may be your question?) If you want to set Both, use M mode. In M mode, Exposure Compensation then only affects the meter reading, but does NOT change the camera settings (unless Auto ISO, which can). [/QUOTE]
