The memory lock function enables an exposure
level to be memorized before shooting. The memo-
ty lock function is very effective when used along
with spot metering. Use the memory lock function to
get a correct exposure when the subject occupies
only a small part of the viewfinder.
Position the area to be measured in the spot
metering area and depress the memory lock
button. The exposure level is memorized and
[*]is displayed in the viewfinder.
USING MEMORY LOCK
*As soon as the memory lock button [ ML ] is
depressed, and the camera stores the measured
exposure level for 20 seconds. The memory lock
function remains while the memory lock button is
depressed.
* If the shutter release button is depressed halfway
down while the memory lock timer is operating,
the memorized meter reading will remain even if
the memory lock button is released.
* The memory lock function cannot be used when
the camera is set in the Metered Manual Mode.
How to cancel
To cancel the memory lock function, depress the
memory lock button again.
