Select a setting for shutter release.
* RP: Stands for Release Priority.
• When [Release] is selected, “RP” appears on the recording information display. It is recommended that
you shoot after confirming the focus in the viewfinder.
If you use a lens equipped with a focus hold button, you can change the function of the button
to preview a shot.
The function and the mode of operation of the AEL (AE Lock) button can be changed.
The AEL (AE Lock) button has two functions; an “AEL” function that locks the exposure
value (shutter speed and aperture) in any metering mode, and a “ (Spot) AEL” function that
temporarily performs spot metering and locks the acquired exposure value. The AEL button
has two modes of operation; “hold” that functions only when the button is held down, and
“toggle” that switches between activation and deactivation each time the button is pressed. Of
these, the following combinations are available.

The shutter cannot be released when the focus is not

again, and the lock is released.

exposure needs to be maintained at the same level.
