AE hold

While the button is held down, the camera temporarily

 

 

performs spot metering regardless of the metering mode

 

 

previously selected and locks the acquired exposure value.

 

 

Press the shutter button to take a picture while keeping the

 

 

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

 

 

normally use multi-segment or center weighted metering but

 

 

need to temporarily use spot metering because of the type of

 

 

subject.

 

 

 

 

AE toggle

Press the button once and release it, and the camera

 

 

temporarily performs spot metering regardless of the

 

 

metering mode previously selected and locks the acquired

 

 

exposure value. 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 if you

 

 

normally use multi-segment or center weighted metering but

 

 

need to temporarily use spot metering because of the type of

 

 

subject.

 

 

 

While the exposure value is locked, “AEL” appears on the LCD monitor and in the viewfinder. Be sure to remember to release the lock when “AE toggle” is selected.

Except for the shutter speed priority mode and the manual mode, slow sync is selected and AE lock is performed when the flash is used (page 69).

The “hold” and “toggle” settings affect the manual shift (page 39) in the manual mode.
