N The photometry modes are effective for the following subjects N h MULTI In this mode, the camera uses automatic scene recognition to analyze the subject and provide optimum exposure in a wide range of shooting conditions. h SPOT This mode is useful for subjects with strongly contrasting light and dark areas where you want to achieve the correct exposure for a particular feature. h AVERAGE The advantage of this mode is that the exposure tends not to change for different compositions or subjects. This mode is particularly effective for shots of people wearing black or white clothing and shots of scenery. j BRACKETING 1 Use this setting to photograph the same image with different exposure settings. Bracketing shoots 3 continuous frames, one of which is correctly exposed while the remaining two are underexposed and overexposed respectively by a set amount. h Bracketing settings (3) ±1/3 EV, ±2/3 EV, ±1 EV See P. 117 for more information on EVs. !G If the underexposed or overexposed frame is outside the camera's control range, the shot is not taken with the specified setting increments. However, if there is insufficient space on the media for 3 shots, no picture will be taken. 1 20 2 0 After setting the exposure for bracketing: 1 Hold down the "f" button. 2 Turn the Command dial to select "j". 62 G SHARPNESS Use this setting to soften or emphasize outlines or to adjust the image quality. Best for shots of subjects such as buildings or text where sharp images are desirable. Best for shots of subjects such as people, where a softer image is desirable. Provides edge sharpness that is ideal for ordinary shots. T MULTIPLE EXPOSURE Multiple exposure provides a way of overlaying images on top of each other to give a final image that cannot be got through normal photography. !G Only in the Brightness (exposure compensation) setting to correct the exposure (P. 53). G This mode is cancelled when turning the camera off. Advanced Features h Continuous shooting and auto bracketing are disabled when MULTI-EXPOSURE is selected.
