Metering

If you cannot obtain suitable exposure conditions, you can change the metering method to take brighter pictures.

ISO

You can select the ISO sensitivity when taking pictures.

The speed or specifi c light-sensitivity of a camera is rated by ISO numbers.

Exposure will be calculated based on an average

regardless of the back lighting.

 

[ISO 800]

 

 

 

 

 

 

Exposure will be calculated based on an average of

the available light in the image area. However, the

 

 

 

[Center]

calculation will be biased towards the centre of the

 

 

 

 

image area. This is suitable for taking a picture of

 

 

 

 

small objects like fl owers or insects.

 

 

If the subject is not the centre of the focus area, do not use the spot metering as this may result in an exposure error. In this circumstance, it is better to use exposure compensation.

Description

The camera’s sensitivity is automatically changed by variables such as lighting value or subject brightness.

You can increase the shutter speed while the same amount of light is present, by increasing the ISO sensitivity. However, the image may be saturated in high luminance. The higher the ISO value, the higher the camera’s sensitivity to light and therefore the greater its capacity to take pictures in dark conditions. However, the noise level in the image will increase as the ISO value increases, making the image appear coarse.
