Selecting the Film Advance Mode Two film advance modes are provided: single-frame and continuous shooting. Press the < > button. • Show the < > (single) or < > (continuous) icon on the LCD panel. Each time you press the < > button, the icons will appear in the following looping sequence: • The continuous shooting speed is approx. 2.5 frames per sec. Metering Modes The camera has three metering modes: Evaluative, partial, and centerweighted average metering. Evaluative metering is the standard metering mode. Partial metering is set automatically when AE lock is used (→page 44), and centerweighted average metering is set automatically in the < > mode (→page 42). Evaluative metering This is an all-around metering mode suited even for backlit subjects. The viewfinder field is divided into 35 metering zones to which the three AF points are linked for evaluative metering. The camera determines the main subject's size, position, brightness, background, front and back lighting, etc., so that it can select the proper exposure for the subject at all times. Partial metering This is particularly effective when the background is much brighter than the subject due to backlighting, etc. This method uses a center area of approximately 9.5% of the screen. • The area covered by partial metering is shown on the left. Centerweighted average metering The metering is weighted at the center and then averaged for the entire scene. In the One-Shot AF and AI Focus AF (except AI Servo AF) modes (→page 55), when you press the shutter button halfway and focus is achieved, the exposure is locked automatically at the same time. 35
