Using Auto Exposure Lock (AE Lock)

The AE Lock feature lets you lock auto exposure at a
particular setting. This feature is separate from the AE lock
that is achieved by pressing the shutter button half way in any
exposure mode besides the M mode (manual exposure).
You can use AE Lock in the following instances.

— To set up exposure on a subject that is different from

the subject selected by Auto Focus

— To setup exposure prior to using the flash for recording

1.

In a REC mode, point the camera at the
subject on which you want exposure to be
performed.

2.

Press [AE-L].

• This fixes the exposure

settings (aperture and
shutter speed), and
displays “AE-L” on the
monitor screen.

• The AE Lock is released

by pressing [AE-L] again
or by changing to another
mode.

3.

Record the image.
