h AVERAGE
The advantage of this mode is that the exposure tends not to change for different compositions
or subjects. This mode is particularly effective for shots of people wearing black or white clothing
and shots of scenery.
h SPOT
This mode is useful for subjects with strongly contrasting light and dark areas where you want to
achieve the correct exposure for a particular feature.
h MULTI
In this mode, the camera uses automatic scene recognition to analyze the subject and provide
optimum exposure in a wide range of shooting conditions. This mode should be used for
everyday photography.
Use this mode for scenes where the brightness
of the subject and background differ markedly so
that the Multi setting is unlikely to achieve the
desired result.
AVERAGE: Light metering where an average
value for the entire image is used.
SPOT : Light metering where the exposure
is optimized for the center of the
image.
MULTI : Light metering where the camera
automatically assesses the scene
and selects the optimum exposure.
●
!
In the “R • >” and “T” modes, light metering is fixed
at the "MULTI" setting and cannot be changed.

Use this feature to photograph the same image
with different exposure settings. Auto bracketing
automatically shoots 3 consecutive frames, one
of which is correctly exposed while the remaining
two are underexposed and overexposed
respectively by a set amount.
h
The three available settings are ±1/3 EV, ±2/3 EV
and ±1 EV. See P.89 for more information on EVs.
●
!
If the underexposed or overexposed frame is outside the
camera’s control range, the shot is not taken with the
specified setting increments.

Flash photography cannot be used.

This feature always takes 3 shots. However, if there is
insufficient space on the Media for 3 shots, no picture will
be taken.
