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	Metering
	the available light in the
	image area. However, the
	calculation will be biased
	towards the centre of the	Back	Move
	image area. This is suitable
	for general use.
[Spot] (	) : Only the rectangular area in the centre of the LCD
	monitor will be metered for light. This is suitable
	when the subject in the centre 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 centre 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 centre 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 single, continuous, motion capture, and AEB (Auto Exposure Bracketing).

[Single] (	)	: Take one picture only.
[Continuous] (		) : Images will be taken
		continuously until the	Drive
		shutter button is
		released.
[Motion Capture] (		) : This takes 5 shots	Back	Move
		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 VGA.
[AEB] (	)	: Take three pictures in a series in different
		exposures: standard exposure (0.0EV),
		short exposure (-1/2EV) and over exposure
		(+1/2EV).

High resolution and picture quality increases file saving time, which increases stand-by time.

If the [Continuous], [Motion Capture], [AEB] sub menu is selected, the flash will be off automatically.

If less than 3 pictures are available in the memory, the AEB shooting is not available.

It is best to use a tripod for the AEB shooting as the time to save each image file is longer and blurring caused by camera shake may occur.
