Adjusting Exposure Manually The camera adjusts the exposure E automatically, making sure that your pictures are neither too dark nor too EXP. light. There is a choice of eight recording programs to deal with different recording conditions (see p. 40). This section explains how to use three more exposure functions. These will give you added control over your recordings. Using the Full Range of Features FlexiZone AE The camera attempts to balance exposure for the whole scene. With FlexiZone AE you can choose which area of the scene to base exposure on, to ensure your subject is properly exposed - whether very dark or bright and wherever it is in the frame. E.LOCK 1. Choose the FlexiZone recording program. • The FlexiZone control frame appears in the display. 2. Use the FlexiZone controller to move the frame over the subject. • The controller can be moved in any direction. 3. Press the EXP. button to lock the exposure. • The camera adjusts the exposure to suit the area that is currently inside the frame. You can move the frame to focus on something else, but the exposure area will not move with it. • E. LOCK appears in the display. 4. Press the button again when you want to cancel FlexiZone AE. • The exposure is now adjusted to suit the centre of the screen again. • Press the button once more if you want to adjust the exposure for the frame's new position. 52
