center-weighted metering area (P.15). A message then appears indicating whether the photographed image is valid.

If the photographed image is not valid, respond to the message displayed as follows:

: The subject is too bright. Apply exposure compensation in the negative (–) direction, select a darker subject or reduce the light level. Then repeat the procedure from step 3.
