Auto Exposure Lock To control the exposure of a specific area within a scene, measure the exposure for the area with Spot or Center-Weighted Metering, then press the AE/AF-L button to lock the exposure, and recompose the picture. Set exposure to a mode other than Manual. 1 While pressing the metering system selector lock release, rotate the metering system selector to select Center-Weighted or Spot Metering. • Matrix Metering is not recommended since the exposure cannot be properly locked. 2 Position focus area (in Spot metering) or center of the frame (in Center-Weighted metering) on subject and lightly press the shutter release button, then press the AE/AF-L button.
