EXPOSURE MODES

Setting the Exposure Mode

This camera has four exposure modes. Choose the mode
that best suits the conditions and your requirements.

How to select the mode

Press the flash exposure button
(

). The mode switches in the order

shown below. The selected mode is
displayed on the LCD panel.

Press the shutter release button
halfway; the green lamp lights and the
focus and exposure are locked on that
area. Reframe your subject and press
the shutter release button all the way.

 Spot Metering

Position the spot marks on the area where you want to
measure the light.

Closing the lens barrier restores the Auto Exposure mode.

FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY

 Night Scene Flash

FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY

 Red-Eye Reduction Night Scene Flash

Use this mode to clearly shoot a subject in the foreground
and a night scene in the background.

Closing the lens barrier restores the Auto Flash mode.

Since a slow shutter speed (as low as 4 seconds) is selected both
in the Night Scene Flash and Red-Eye Reduction Night Scene Flash
modes, use a tripod to prevent camera shake.

This mode cannot be combined with the Spot Metering mode.

Closing the lens barrier restores the Auto Flash mode.

Since a slow shutter speed (as low as 4 seconds) is selected both
in the Night Scene Flash and Red-Eye Reduction Night Scene Flash
modes, use a tripod to prevent camera shake.

This mode cannot be combined with the Spot Metering mode.

Use this mode to take pictures of people with a night scene
background while reducing “red-eye.” Except for the pre-
flashes, this mode is the same as the Night Scene Flash mode.
