AE Lock is a function that locks the exposure (brightness) prior to taking a
picture. Use this when the subject is too small or is backlit and a proper
exposure setting cannot be obtained.
First, assign the AE Lock function to the d/i button.
1
Select [Green Button] in the [A Rec. Mode 3] menu, and
press the four-way controller (5).
The [Green Button] screen appears.
2
Press the four-way controller
(5), use the four-way controller
(23) to select [AE Lock], and
press the 4 button.
3
Press the 3 button twice.
The AE Lock function is assigned to the d/ i button and the camera is
ready to take a picture.
• When [Autofocus Method] (p.87) is set to [AF Select (25 Points)], [Select] or
[Spot], the focus position is locked in the first image and is used for
subsequent images.
• Switch to a mode other than l or c in the Drive Mode setting screen to
cancel Exposure Bracketing. The setting is canceled when the camera is
turned off if [Drive Mode] is set to P (Off) in [Memory] (p.195) of the [A Rec.
Mode 3] menu.
• You can combine Exposure Bracketing with the built-in flash or an external
flash (P-TTL auto only) to change only the flash output continuously.
