Canon EOS A2E - Manual (Page 109)

CF9: Fixes the shutter speed at 1 /200 sec
when using flash.
When shooting indoors with flash in aperture-priority AE
mode, the camera is likely to set a slow shutter speed which
can result in blur caused by camera shake This custom func­
tion prevents this from happening by fixing the shutter speed
at 1 /200 sec regardless of the lighting conditions
CF10: Prohibits superimposed AF frames in
the viewfinder
When a subject is focused, the AF frame used for focusing nor­
mally lights red in the viewfinder Setting this custom function
stops this from happening.
CF11 Adds a depth-of-field check function to
the AE lock button. Setting this function lets you use the AE lock button to check
the depth of field after the subject is focused and exposure is
set
This custom function cannot be used together with CF4
CF12: Enables shooting with the mirror
locked up
When the shutter button is pressed completely in self-timer
mode, the mirror moves up immediately and the picture is
taken two seconds later
CF13: Cancels the metering timer function
• Except in DEP mode.
Setting this function cancels the timer which continues meter­
ing for six seconds after your finger is removed from the shut­
ter button, thus saving battery power.
CF14: Changes the sync timing ofthe built-in
flash from first curtain sync to second
curtain sync.
Flash firing synchronizes with the travel of the second shutter
curtain, providing a more natural effect when using slow shut­
ter speeds
CF15: Links spot metering to the selected AF
frame (only when the AF frame is se­
lected by the user).
Setting this function lets you carry out spot metering at the
same point as the selected AF frame, eliminating the need to
change the scene composition during metering.
CF16: Cancels automatic flash reduction
control.
Setting this function cancels the automatic flash reduction
control which normally operates with backlit subjects, thus
preventing the underexposure which can occur with subjects
backlit by a strong light source such as the afternoon sun.
