Metering
If you cannot obtain suitable exposure conditions, you can change the metering method to
take brighter pictures.
MULTI( ) : Exposure will be calculated based on an
average of the available light in the
image area. However, the calculation will
be biased towards the centre of the
image area. This is suitable for general
use.
SPOT( ) : Only the rectangular area in the centre of
the LCD monitor will be metered for light.
This is suitable when the subject in the centre is exposed correctly,
regardless of the back lighting. If the subject is not the centre of the focus
area, do not use the spot metering as this may result in an exposure error.
In this circumstance, it is better to use exposure compensation.
Continuous shot
Select the number of pictures in continuous shooting.
- [SINGLE] : Take one picture only
- [2, 4, 8 SHOTS] : Take the set number of pictures with

shooting mode is cleared after one
