(2) Exposure Compensation

When [Auto], [Auto (Flickerless)] or [Auto (Shutter-priority AE)] is selected as the exposure

mode, a desired exposure compensation value can be selected from seven levels (-3 to +3)

using an applicable button.

To darken the image, select a negative value. To brighten the image, select a positive value.

(3) Metering Mode

When [Auto], [Auto (Flickerless)] or [Auto (Shutter-priority AE)] is selected as the exposure

mode, select a desired metering mode from [Center-Weighted], [Average] and [Spot].

[Center-Weighted]

The entire screen is metered by focusing on the center of the screen.

Even when slightly darker/brighter areas are present on the periphery of the screen, an

appropriate exposure can be achieved for the subject near the center.

Use this mode if the subject is positioned near the center of the screen.

[Average]

The entire screen is metered by averaging.

A stable exposure can be achieved even in a capture environment where there are notable

brightness differences within the screen.

Use this mode to stabilize the exposure in locations where vehicles or people are moving.

[Spot]

The center of the screen is metered.

An appropriate exposure can be achieved for the subject at the center of the screen

regardless of the brightness/darkness on the periphery of the screen.

Use this mode if you want to adjust the exposure to the center of the screen because the

subject is receiving a spotlight or backlight, etc.

(4) [Shutter Speed]

When [Manual] or [Auto (Shutter-priority AE)] is selected as the exposure mode, select a

desired shutter speed. If [Manual] is selected, set the shutter speed from the pull-down menu

in a range of [1/1 sec] to [1/8000]. If [Auto (Shutter-priority AE)] is selected, set the shutter

speed from the pull-down menu in a range of [1/8] to [1/8000].

(5) [Aperture]

When [Manual] is selected as the exposure mode, set a desired value of aperture.

Moving the slider to the left closes the aperture and darkens the image. Moving the slider to

the right opens the aperture and brightens the image.
