Autoexposure (AE) Lock
Use autoexposure lock to recompose photographs after metering
exposure.
1 Select center-weighted or
spot metering (pg. 110).
Matrix metering will not
produce the desired results
with autoexposure lock.
If
using center-weighted
metering, select the center
focus point with the multi
selector (pg. 78).
2 Lock exposure.
Position the subject in the selected
focus point and press the shutter-
release button halfway.
With the
shutter-release button pressed halfway
and the subject positioned in the focus
point, press the AE-L/AF-L button to lock
exposure (and focus, except in manual
focus mode).
Confirm that the in-focus
indicator (I) appears in the viewfinder.
While exposure lock is in effect, an AE-L
indicator will appear in the viewfinder.
