Automatic exposure
control
The camera automatically
controls the exposure of
your digital photos with an
equivalent sensitivity of ISO
100/21°.
Programmed AE will
automatically select shutter
speeds from 2 s to 1/500 s
and apertures of f/3.4, f/4.8,
f/7.7 and f/15 (wide-angle)
as well as f/3.6, f/4.8, f/7.7
and f/15 (telephoto).
Press the MENU button on
the camera back and use the
four-way control to select
Exposure. In the Area
submenu you may select
Full, Central or Spot using
the four-way control
(pressing the Right arrow
).
A blinking red lamp beside
the viewfinder eyepiece
warns against camera shake
(when the flash is off) and
recommends use of a tripod.
To lock in exposure settings,
press and hold the shutter
release in its halfway
position. This allows pinpoint
exposure control in the case
of high subject contrast.
In its default setting, the
camera averages exposure
over the entire field.
However, for certain
subjects, such as portraits
against a bright background,
you may also switch to
center-weighted metering.
Spot metering in turn is ideal
for precise metering of
important subject details.
For pinpoint metering, use
AE lock with the shutter
release depressed halfway.
