Metering

If you cannot obtain suitable exposure conditions, you can change the metering method to take brighter pictures. This can be set in Auto and Manual modes.

MULTI(

 

)

: Exposure will be calculated based on an

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

average of the available light in the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

image area. However, the calculation

 

METERING

 

 

 

will be biased towards the centre of the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

MULTI

 

 

 

 

image area. This is suitable for general

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

use.

 

SPOT

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.

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.

Effect

By using the camera’s digital processor, it is possible to add special effects to your images. You can select from AUTO, MANUAL, and Movie Clip modes. The value you set will remain unchanged until the camera is turned off.
