AE Lock

Normally the camera automatically meters the focus and the exposure when you half- press the shutter button and locks the AF (automatic focus) and AE (automatic exposure)

at the same time. However, you can lock the exposure by pressing the button before pressing the shutter button.

If you press the shutter button with the button depressed, only AF is performed and the exposure does not change.

Conversely, if you press the button with the shutter button half-pressed, the focus is fixed and you can adjust the exposure.

The exposure is held only as long as the button is depressed and released as soon as the button is released.
