Adjusting the
Brightness of the
Image (Exposure)
Normally, the exposure is
automatically adjusted. However,
depending on the recording conditions,
the exposure can be adjusted manually.
Hints
• To manually adjust the focus, always
push the zoom lever toward the T
(telephoto) side to magnify the
subject. This prevents blurred images
when you switch to wide-angle
zooming.
• If you wish to adjust exposure while
focusing manually, press f. The
exposure bar lights in orange. To
return to manual focusing, press e.
• Auto Focus may not perform well on
subjects if: subjects are not in the
center of the frame, both near and far
subjects are within the auto focus
bracket at the same time, subjects are
moving rapidly, subjects are dark or
low in contrast, etc.
