AEL button

The function and the mode of operation of the AEL (AE Lock) button can be changed. The AEL (AE Lock) button has two functions; an “AEL” function that locks the exposure value (shutter speed and aperture) in any metering mode, and a “ (Spot) AEL” function that temporarily performs spot metering and locks the acquired exposure value. The AEL button has two modes of operation; “hold” that functions only when the button is held down, and “toggle” that switches between activation and deactivation each time the button is pressed. Of these, the following combinations are available.

 

AE hold

While the button is held down, the exposure value in the

 

 

selected metering mode is locked.

 

 

Press the shutter button to take a picture while keeping the

 

 

AEL (AE Lock) button pressed down. This is suitable when

 

 

the exposure needs to be maintained at the same level.

 

 

 

 

AE toggle

Press the button once and release it, and the exposure value in

 

 

the selected metering mode stays locked. Press the button

 

 

again, and the lock is released.

 

 

There is no need to hold the AEL (AE Lock) button down

 

 

when the shutter button is pressed. This is suitable when the

 

 

exposure needs to be maintained at the same level.
