When you half-press the shutter to achieve the focus and exposure lock, the AF targets will turn red and show the area it is focusing on. The aperture, shutter speed, exposure compensation, flash power, and ISO settings will also be displayed across the bottom. If the focus does not lock there will be a red "AF" in the upper right hand corner to indicate focus failure.

Rotate the Mode Dial to select one of the record modes: Video, Auto, SCN(shown below), Program AE, Aperture priority, Shutter priority, Manual or Custom.

When using the SCN mode found on the Mode Dial, you can choose from 16 pre-programmed scene modes to achieve the proper exposure for select shooting conditions.

This screen shows the various aperture settings (F2.8-F8 wide, F4.8-F8 tele)available in the Aperture priority mode. You change aperture values by pressing the Jog Dial in, then rotating it. You can also override the metering ±2.0EV, Flash power ±1EV, and select the ISO speed.

This screen shows various shutter speed settings (64 to 1/1000 sec. manual, 1/8 - 1/1400 auto) available in the Shutter priority mode. You also change the shutter speed value using the Jog Dial.
