Nikon F50 - USING AE-L BUTTON

USING AE-L BUTTON
When your subject is off-centre or very small against
an extremely bright background, your subject may
come out too dark (underexposed) in the picture. Or,
with a background that is too dark, the subject may be
washed out (overexposed). In such situations, to
correctly expose your subject in the auto exposure
mode, use the AE-L (Auto Exposure Lock) button.
