Set the exposure.
Check the exposure level and set the
desired shutter speed and aperture.
If the difference with the standard
exposure exceeds ±3 stops, the end
of the exposure level indicator will
display < > or < >.

Take the picture.
If ISO Auto is set, the ISO speed setting will change to obtain a standard
exposure given the shutter speed and aperture set. Therefore, you may not
obtain the desired exposure effect.
In [z2: Auto Lighting Optimizer], if the checkmark <X> for [Disable
during man expo] is removed, it can be set in the <a> mode (p.146).
When ISO Auto is set, you can press the <A> button to lock the ISO speed.
After recomposing the picture, you can see the exposure level difference
on the exposure level indicator (p.22) compared to when you pressed the
<A> button.
