AE LOCK
The camera will fix and memorize the exposure value whilst the
“AE” Lock button is depressed. When you wish to lock the
exposure of a subject off-center, AE lock is very useful. Use of this
function with Spot Metering Mode is recommended.

lock the exposure, inside the color LCD
monitor and press the
button.
(The exposure value is memorized and
AEL is displayed in the upper part of the
color LCD monitor.)
2
Compose the picture and press the
shutter button.
• It is possible to continue taking pictures with the memorized exposure
value until this setting is disabled by pressing the
button again.
