EXPOSURE LOCK
For compositional reasons, the most important part of the subject
is often not in the center of the picture, and as a result such impor-
tant parts of the subject may be excessively light or dark. Center-
weighted metering, however, records only an area in the center of
the image and is calibrated to an average gray scale value.
Subjects and situations of this type can be overcome very easily
even in aperture priority mode, using exposure lock.
Using the function
1. Aim at the important subject detail or alternatively at another
detail with average brightness.
2. Press the shutter release button down to the 1st pressure
point for measurement and saving. As long as the pressure
point is held, a small red dot appears in the viewfinder at the
top in the digits line for confirmation, and the exposure time no
longer changes even if the lighting conditions are different.
3. Keeping the shutter release pressed, move the camera to
capture the final trimming,
4. The shutter can then be released using the exposure originally
determined.
Changing the aperture setting after using exposure lock has no
effect on the shutter speed, and will lead to an incorrect exposure.
Exposure lock is canceled when you remove your finger from the
shutter release pressure point.
EXPOSURE COMPENSATION
Exposure meters are calibrated to a gray scale value, which corre-
sponds to the brightness of a normal, i.e. average photographic
subject. If the actual subject detail does not match this assump-
tion, an appropriate exposure compensation can be performed.
Particularly when taking several pictures in succession, for
instance if for any reason a series of pictures is taken deliberately
using slight under or overexposure, exposure compensation is a
very useful function: In contrast to exposure lock, once set it
remains effective until it is reset. Exposure compensation can be
set in the range ±3EV in
1
⁄
3
EV steps (EV: Exposure Value).
1. Turn on the camera
2. Keep the function button pressed down and turn the thumbwheel
• During setting, the digital display in the viewfinder shows the
relevant value. Even after the shutter release button has
been lightly pressed, it appears for a short time.
MANUAL EXPOSURE SETTING
If the exposure setting is performed entirely manually, the shutter
speed dial must be clicked to one of the engraved exposure times
or to one of the intermediate values.
Then:
1. Turn on the exposure meter, and
2. turn the shutter speed dial and /or the aperture setting ring on
the lens – in each case in the direction indicated by the trian-
gular LED that is lit up – until only the circular LED is lit up.
