ξ This file format complies with the DCF (Design rule for Camera File system).
ξJPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) :
JPEG is the image compression standard developed by the Joint Photographic Experts Group. This type of compression is most commonly used for compressing photos and graphics because it can compress the files efficiently.
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 image | METERING |
| | area. However, the |
| | |
| | calculation will be | Multi |
| | |
| | biased towards the centre of the 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 objects like flowers or insects.
KIf 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.
