EXPOSURE SIMULATION
In Live View mode, the Exposure Simulation
displays the effect of the selected exposure
settings (Aperture, Shutter and ISO) and
how these settings changes the photo. It
is an approximation (a close but not exact
example) of how the nal captured photo will
look. If you, for example in Manual
exposure mode (M), select a smaller
Aperture, the Live View displays a
darker image. If you select a more
open Aperture, the Live View displays
an image that is lighter.
When in the A, S and P exposure
modes, you can use Exposure
Simulation to see the effect of an
exposure adjustment before you
capture the photo. As an example, a
Quick Adjust of +1.0 steps results in
a clearly lighter photo exposure.
Note!
When you use the camera with
a ash, the Exposure Simulation
will not display a correct result.
For example, if you have set the
Aperture and Shutter to be adapted
to ashlight indoors, normally the
Exposure Simulation displays an
image that is too dark in the Live
View mode. It is advised to turn off
Exposure Simulation before you start
to take photos with a ash.
Note!
If Exposure Simulation is active and
the exposure settings are set to
very high overexposure or very low
underexposure for the actual light
conditions, the Live View displays
a very light or very dark image.
In extreme cases, it results in a
completely overexposed white image
or a completely underexposed black
image. In these cases you can use
the balance scale, down to the left in
Live View mode, while adjusting the
exposure settings, to maintain desired
exposure.
Note!
When Autofocus is active and analysing
the subject, the Exposure Simulation is
deactivated to let the Autofocus system
operate in optimal conditions. When
the Autofocus process is ready, the
Exposure Simulation is automatically
activated again.
