Shooting functions k Exposure, image and color

The metered exposure value can be locked with the AEL button (AE lock). Use AE lock when

you want a different exposure setting from the one that would normally apply under the

current shooting conditions.

Normally, pressing the shutter button halfway locks both AF (auto focus) and AE (automatic

exposure), but you can lock the exposure alone by pressing the AEL button.

Press the AEL button at the position where you wish to

lock the metering values and the exposure will be

locked. As the exposure will be locked while the AEL

button is being pressed, press the shutter button.

• Releasing the AEL button cancels AE lock.

• Using the custom menu, you can set AE lock so that it is not

canceled when the AEL button is released. g “AEL/AFL

memo” (P. 72)

The higher the ISO value, the greater the camera’s light sensitivity and the better its ability to

shoot in low light conditions. However, higher values may give pictures a grainy appearance.

For [AUTO], sensitivity is set automatically according to the shooting conditions and is fixed

to ISO100 when flash is not fired in S or M mode.

Color reproduction differs depending on the light conditions. For instance, when daylight or

tungsten lighting is reflected on white paper, the shade of white produced will be slightly

different for each. With a digital camera, white color can be adjusted to reproduce more

natural white with a digital processor. This mechanism is called white balance. There are 4

options for setting the WB with this camera.
