Advanced (Recording pictures)

If there are any white saturated areas, we

[ON]

 

 

[OFF]

recommend compensating the exposure towards

 

 

negative (P72) referring to the histogram (P65) and

 

 

 

 

 

then taking the picture again. It may result in a better

 

 

 

 

 

quality picture.

 

 

 

 

 

There may be white saturated areas if the distance between the camera and the subject is too close when taking pictures with the flash.

If [HIGHLIGHT] is set to [ON] in this case, the area directly illuminated by the photo flash will become white saturated and appear blinking in black and white.

The LCD/EVF will display overexposed portions of the image as white blinking areas. These only exist on the camera’s display, not on the actual photo.

This does not work while in Multi Playback (P58), Calendar Playback (P59), or Playback Zoom (P60).

 

This will set what will be fixed by the [AF/AE LOCK] button when

 

taking a picture with fixed focus or exposure.

 

 

 

[AF/AE LOCK]

[AE]:

Only the exposure is locked.

 

[AF]:

Only the focus is locked.

Both focus and exposure are locked.

 

 

 

Refer to P85 for details.

[AF/AE LOCK HOLD]

If you release [AF/AE LOCK], AF/AE Lock is canceled.

[ON]: The focus and the exposure remain fixed even if you release [AF/AE LOCK] after pressing it.

If you press [AF/AE LOCK] again, AF/AE Lock is canceled.
