Locking the Flash Exposure Setting (FE Lock)

You can obtain the correct exposure regardless of the location of your
subject in the composition.

Press the button and display

on the LCD monitor.

Focus the AF frame or the spot metering frame on the
subject on which you wish to lock the flash exposure
setting and press the shutter button halfway.

Pressing the shutter button halfway, press the ISO button
halfway.

The flash pre-fires to acquire the exposure value required for the subject,
and

appears on the LCD monitor.

Each time you press the

button, the flash exposure locks at the

required intensity for that composition.

Recompose the image and shoot.

Mode Dial

After performing FE lock, using anything except the shutter button or
the multi control dial cancels the FE lock.

FE Lock is not available while

is displayed on the LCD monitor.

The FE lock function is not available when [Flash Adjust] is set to
[Manual].
