Metering

If you cannot obtain suitable exposure conditions, you can change the metering method to take brighter pictures.

[Multi] (	) : Exposure will be calculated
	based on an average of
	the available light in the	Metering
	image area. However, the
	calculation will be biased
	towards the center of the	Back	Move
	image area. This is suitable
	for general use.
[Spot] (	) : Only the rectangular area in the center of the LCD monitor
	will be metered for light. This is suitable when the subject
	in the center is exposed correctly, regardless of the back
	lighting.

[Center-weighted] ()

:Exposure will be calculated based on an average of the available light in the image area. However, the calculation will be biased towards the center of the image area. This is suitable for taking a picture of small object like a flower or insects.

ÄIf the subject is not the center of the focus area, do not use the spot metering as this may result in an exposure error. In this circumstance, it is better to use exposure compensation.

Drive mode

You can select continuous shot, and AEB (Auto Exposure Bracketing).

[Single] (	)	: Take one picture only.

		continuously until the	Drive
		shutter button is re-
		leased.
[High-speed] (		) : Continuous shooting is	Back	Move
		available while pressing
		and holding the Shutter button (About 6.5 frames
		per second). The shooting speed may get slower
		depending on the shooting environment or the
		number of shots. (Up to 3M Size)
[Motion Capture] (		): This takes 10 shots per second, when the shutter
		is pressed and held down. After completing the
		continuous shooting, images are saved and the
		images play back on the Rear LCD. The maximum
		number of shots is 30 and the image size is fixed
		as 1024X768.
[AEB] (	)	: Take three consecutive photos with varying
		exposure values. Use this mode if it is hard to
		decide exposure of the object.
