■ 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 you want the subject in the centre
correctly exposed, regardless of the back lighting.

- CENTER : 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 taking a
picture of small object like a flower or insects.

※ 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 such circumstances, it is better to
use exposure compensation.

Sharpness

■ You can adjust the sharpness of the picture you

want to take. But you cannot check the sharpness
effect on the LCD monitor before you take a picture,
because this function is applied after the captured
image is stored on the memory.
