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 image

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, It is better to use exposure compensation.

Continuous Shooting

Select the number of pictures in continuous shooting.

- [SINGLE]

: Take one picture only

-[CONTINUOUS] : Images will be taken continuously until the shutter button is released. The shooting capacity depends on the memory.

- [AEB]

: Take three pictures in a series in different

 

exposures: short exposure (-0.5EV),

 

standard exposure (0.0EV) and over

 

exposure (+0.5EV). Use the mode if it is

 

hard to decide exposure of the object.

SHOOTING

SINGLE

CONTINUOUS

AEB

[ PROGRAM mode ]

High resolution and picture quality increases file saving time, which increases stand-by time.

If the [CONTINOUS] sub menu is selected, the flash will be off automatically.

If less than 3 pictures are available in the memory, the AEB shooting is not available.

It is best to use a tripod for the AEB shooting as the time to save each image file is longer and the blurring caused by camera shake may occur.
