82 SELECTING ANOTHER EXPOSURE MODE ✍ MEMO • The AE lock does not operate in the Metered Manual Mode. • When using negative color film, the finished print is not greatly affected by a certain amount of over- or under-exposure. This is because color negative film has wide latitude. If you use positive (slide) film, which has narrow latitude, you need to adjust the aperture and shutter speed to intentionally over- or under-expose the shot. Exposure Warning If the subject is too bright or too dark, both shutter speed and aperture setting will blink in the viewfinder and on the LCD panel. It means that the exposure is out of metering range, unable to obtain a correct exposure even if the shutter speed and aperture are adjusted. Use an ND (Neutral Density) filter or select a darker subject if the subject is too bright. Use a flash if it is too dark.
