Metering

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

MULTI(

 

)

: Exposure will be calculated based on

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

an average of the available light in the

2272

ISO

 

 

 

image area. However, the calculation

METERING

 

 

 

will be biased towards the centre of

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the image area. This is suitable for

 

MULTI

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SPOT

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

general use.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SPOT (

)

: Only the rectangular area in the center

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

of the LCD monitor will be metered for

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

light. This is suitable when the subject in the center is exposed correctly,

 

 

 

regardless of the back lighting.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fixed as [MULTI] in the TEXT mode.

INFORMATION

The default metering mode is Multi pattern metering.

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, rather use exposure compensation.

ISO

You can select the ISO sensitivity when taking pictures.

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

The higher the ISO value, the higher the camera’s sensitivity to light is 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.

ISO

-AUTO :

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

-100, 200, 400 :

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.

Fixed as [100] in the TEXT mode.
