Memory lock button
Another way of making exposure compensation with the F3AF
on automatic is to use the exposure memory lock button. When
there is a substantial difference in brightness between the main
subject and the background, such as a strongly backlit subject,
the camera’s exposure meter is likely to be fooled, resulting
in under- or overexposure (Fig. 1). To compensate for this,
center the main subject in the viewfinder or move in close to
the subject, depress the memory lock button and hold it in: then
recompose and shoot (Fig. 2).
Note:
In autofocus operation, you must also depress the locus lock
button when recomposing with the subject off-center to keep it in
sharp focus.
