Aperture priority, selective mode
Preset the required aperture, shutter speed is computed automatically.
This mode is indicated where spot readings are necessary, for example in
Only in aperture priority mode with selective metering!
In selective mode, the exposure meter covers only the field within the large central circle of the viewfinder. This allows you to determine the light reflected by a limited area of the subject. To store this value, press the shutter release beyond the first pressure point to the second pressure point and keep your finger in position. The exposure meter reading is stored as long as you keep the shutter release pressed down in this position. To indicate this, the program mode symbol A in the viewfinder is extinguished. Still keeping your finger on the shutter release, you can now pan the camera to compose the photograph, then press the shutter release fully home. As long as the exposure value remains in the memory, the viewfinder continues to display the stored shutter speed. If during this time you alter the aperture, the shutter speed changes automatically and the viewfinder displays the new shutter speed. As soon as you take your finger from the shutter release, the stored value is erased.
