EXPOSURE COMPENSATION

(160 MODEL ONLY)

The multi-segment metering can expose for most
situations: back lighting, and directly lit snow scenes.
However, under certain conditions the meter can be
deceived by high-key scenes like white interiors or
foggy landscapes. This mode increases the exposure
by 1.5 Ev. The flash is disabled.

Press the flash-mode button until the
exposure-compensation indicator appears to
set the mode.

• The orange flash lamp may blink slowly as a camera-

shake warning. Use the flash or place the camera on
a tripod.

SELF-TIMER

1. With the camera on a tripod, press the

drive-mode button until the self-timer
indicator appears on the data panel.

2. Frame the subject as described in the

manual.

• Focus lock can be used with Area AF and spot AF.
• With target AF or when focus lock is not used, the

focus is set just before the exposure. Make sure the
subject is positioned inside the focus frames.

The self-timer is used for taking self-portraits. The self-timer delays release of
the shutter for approximately 10 seconds after the shutter-release button is
pressed.
