AE (Automatic Exposure)

Used to hold an automatically controlled shutter speed and/or aperture.

lock

Recommended when you want to control an exposure based on a scene’s

 

particular brightness area with Center-Weighted or Spot Metering.

Continuous Servo AF

Focus detection continues as long as the shutter release button is lightly

 

pressed and the reflex mirror is in the viewing position. Useful when the

 

camera-to-subject distance is likely to change.

Depth of field

The zone of sharpest focus in front of, behind, and around the subject; can

 

be previewed.

Drive mode

Drive mode determines whether one or more images are captured when

 

you are pressing the Shutter Release button. There are two automatic Drive

 

modes: Single frame and Continuous shooting.

EV

(Exposure Value) A number representing the available combinations of

 

shutter speeds and apertures that give the same exposure effect under

 

conditions of similar scene brightness and ISO.

 

At ISO 100, the combination of a one-second shutter speed and an aperture

 

of f/1.4 is defined as EV1.

 

You must use the camera only within the EV range of the exposure meter.

Exposure bracketing

Shooting the same subject using a range of different exposures. Your

 

camera provides Auto Exposure Bracketing/Flash Exposure Bracketing.

 

Auto Exposure Bracketing: Auto Exposure Bracketing performs

 

automatic exposure bracketing with varied shutter speed and/or aperture.

 

Flash Exposure Bracketing: Enables you to automatically bracket

 

exposures at varied flash output levels, in TTL auto flash shooting, without

 

changing the shutter speed and/or aperture.
