AEL/AFL mode
You can use the
AEL button to perform AF or metering operations instead of
using the shutter button. You can use the button in the following ways.
• When you want to focus on a subject and then change the composition of the
photo.
• When you want to set the exposure by metering an area different from where
the camera is focused.
Select the function of the button to match the operation when the shutter
button is pressed. Select [mode1] or [mode2] in the respective focus mode.
