Help Guide Digital Camera ZV-1M2 AE lock When the contrast between the subject and background is high, such as when shooting a backlit subject or a subject near a window, meter the light at a spot where the subject appears to have the appropriate brightness and lock the exposure before shooting. To reduce the brightness of the subject, meter the light at a spot brighter than the subject and lock the exposure of the entire screen. To make the subject brighter, meter the light at a spot darker than the subject and lock the exposure of the entire screen. 1 MENU → (Setup) → [Operation Customize] → [ Custom Key Setting] or [ Custom Key Setting] → desired key, then assign [AEL toggle] to the key. 2 Adjust the focus on the spot at which the exposure is adjusted. 3 Press the button to which [AEL toggle] is assigned. The exposure is locked, and (AE lock) is displayed. 4 Focus on the subject again and press the shutter button. To cancel the exposure lock, press the button to which the [AEL toggle] function is assigned. Hint If you select the [AEL hold] function in [ Custom Key Setting] or [ Custom Key Setting], you can lock the exposure as long as you are holding down the button. You cannot set the [AEL hold] function to [Left Button] or [Right Button]. Note [ AEL hold] and [ AEL toggle] are not available when using zoom functions other than optical zoom.
