c: Timers/AE Lock

c1: Shutter-Release Button AE-L

At the default setting of [Off], exposure only locks when the AE-L/AF-Lbutton is pressed. If [On] is selected, exposure will also lock when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway.

c2: Auto Meter-off Delay

This option controls how long the camera continues to meter exposure when no operations are performed. Choose from 4 s, 6 s, 8 s, 16 s, 30 s, 1 minute, 5 minutes,

10 minutes, 30 minutes, or until the camera is turned off ([No limit]). The shutter-speed and aperture displays in the top control panel and viewfinder turn off automatically when the exposure meters turn off.
