HIGHLIGHT CONTROL
The Highlight button enables white objects to come
out white. It is very useful for copy work and shoot-
ing light or white subjects on the whole. After spot
metering is made on the white subject, then press the
Highlight button. The exposure value needed for
rendering it in true white will be automatically calcu-
lated and set.
In the example picture, the brightest spot of the
tableware has been metered on spot metering. Press-
ing the Highlight button increases exposure and
provides the correct overall exposure to make the
tableware white and not a dullish gray.
If the Highlight button is pressed again after the
"highlight control" is once set up, only the "highlight
control" is released and the camera returns to spot
metering. To reset center-weighted averaging light
metering, operate the Clear lever.
*lf the Highlight button is pressed after several spots
have been measured the exposure value for the
brightest spot only will be adjusted.
