Recording with a Fixed Brightness (AE Lock Function)

This is a function for setting a fixed brightness. When recording in light with an extreme difference in the brightness of the background and the subject, such as a person standing in front of a dark background, the person can be recorded brightly if the brightness is adjusted to the person.

1After setting to Camera Mode, press the [W/T] zoom Lever toward [T] and zoom in to the part you want to record.

2Set the Mode Selector Switch to [AE LOCK].

The [ AELOCK ] Indication 1 flashes to indicate that the brightness is fixed. Afterwards, it lights up white.

To fix your desired brightness

Set the Mode Selector Switch to [MANUAL] first and adjust the Shutter Speed and Iris to the desired color in step 2, and then set the Mode Selector Switch to [AE LOCK].

To cancel AE Lock Function

Set the Mode Selector Switch to [AUTO] or [MANUAL].

Set the AE Lock again when [TAPE/CARD] Selector is switched after the AE Lock has been set. (The brightness setting may be changed.)
