Caution
During sequential shooting, face detection will work only at the
fi
rst shot.
Depending on the subject, the camera may not be able to correctly detect the face.
If [
M
(SINGLE TARGET)] is chosen for AF target selection, the camera will focus
on the subject in the selected focus target.
In metering modes other than [
G
(Digital ESP metering)], the camera will meter
exposure for the selected position.

Histograms
Histograms show how pixels of different brightnesses
are distributed and are used as a guide to exposure.
The horizontal axis shows brightness, the vertical axis
the number of pixels of each brightness in the image.
Brightnesses that exceed a speci
fi
ed upper limit are
shown in red, those under a speci
fi
ed lower limit in blue.
The green portion shows the distribution in the spot
metering area.
