Lauvau Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 <p>Hello,<br />This is a moment that I try to view the "traditional values" speeds on my 5D MarkII (Like .. 60/125/250/500/1000/etc). Can not find the command? Ideas?<br />thank you,<br />L.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDMvW Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 <p>Not sure what you're asking.<br /> Where and why are you trying to "view" them?</p> <p>When taking pictures, just choose <strong>Tv</strong> and set your shutter speed with the dial on the top display or in the viewfinder. When taking a picture in some other mode the speed will show up in the viewfinder and on the top display.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauvau Posted April 29, 2013 Author Share Posted April 29, 2013 <p>Sorry, I'm in the wrong term. Not "view" but "choose".<br />You know, my current speed-exposure values are 90/125/200/250etc. I wish I had the normal values, like we Leica :) (60/125/250/etc)</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobatkins Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 <p>It's a custom function. You can choose 1/2 stop steps, 1/3 stop steps or whole stop steps. You're currently set to 1/3 stops. You want 1/2 stops.</p> <p>Not sure which menu it's under on the 5D MkII, but it will be in the manual.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthony_r.1 Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 <p>I think he wants whole stops.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamie_robertson2 Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 <p>Custom function I - 1: Set to half stops instead of 1/3 stops. The 5D MkII does not have the option to use only full stops for aperture or shutter speed, only for ISO.</p> <p>Even so, why on earth anyone would want to limit a camera like this to full stop steps is beyond me.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
