The camera has three metering modes: Evaluative, partial, and center-weighted average metering.

38 Q Automatic Depth-of-Field AE This mode is for obtaining a wide depth of field automatically between a near subject and far subject. It is effective for group photos and landscapes. The camera uses the 7 AF points to detect the nearest and farthest subjects to be in focus. ∗ < Q > stands for Auto-depth of field. 1 T urn the Mode Dial to [...]

39 ∑ Exposure Compensation ★ Exposure compensation is used to alter the camera’s standard exposure setting. Y ou can make the picture look lighter (increased exposure) or darker (decreased exposure).
