METERING
Metering determines the area of the sensor that is used for brightness evaluation:
Spot
: Weights the measurement to the center 5% of the sensor, approximately.
Center
: Weights the measurement to the center 25% of the sensor, approximately.
Average
: Averages the entire image area of the sensor.
SPEED
The Speed setting determines how quickly the algorithm adapts to changing light.
Slow
: Settings adapt in small steps. Use this setting for fewer and gradual adjustments.
Normal
: Settings adapt in medium steps.
Fast
: Settings adapt in large steps.
SELECTION
The Selection setting determines which values the algorithm uses. This enables you to modify the list of values
so that the algorithm selects only specific parameters. Use
Free Value Selection
to improve accuracy.
For example, you can modify the F stop list to include f/2.8 and f/5.6. If Free Value Selection is enabled, the
algorithm only selects F stop parameters between f/2.8 and f/5.6. This setting limits the range of focal depth.
AE LOCKS
AE Locks control which setting the camera can control. If either F stop or exposure are locked, you are in full
control of that setting and the AE feature cannot modify the setting. When both F stop and exposure are locked,
AE behaves as an indicator if the brightness fluctuates more than a stop.
AE INDICATORS
When the AE feature is able to match the sensor brightness, the overlay turns yellow. If the brightness fluctuates
more than half of a stop, the overlay turns red.
When AE is enabled, the “AE” indicator displays before the F stop and exposure parameters in the Upper Status
Row. The user-selected brightness and current measured brightness display in the histogram as gray and white
lines, respectively.
AE LIMITS
All limits, includes custom modifications made to available menu items, are taken into account when AE is
active. For example, if you modify the available list of exposure values, only those values are considered.
