Autoexposure Lock
Exposure lock is used to recompose photographs after metering
exposure. It is most effective when used with center-weighted or
spot metering (0 117) to frame off-center subjects that are
much brighter or darker than their surroundings or to optimize
exposure for an object other than your main subject.
1
Meter exposure.

the frame and press the shutter-
release button halfway to meter expo-

played in green.

Lock exposure.

pressed halfway and the subject posi-
tioned in the focus area, press 1 (A)
