Menu item details
- Auto (default setting):
- Fixes the exposure after adjusting the focus automatically when you press the shutter button halfway down when [Focus Mode] is set to [Single-shot AF].
When [Focus Mode] is set to [Automatic AF], and the product determines that the subject is moving, or you shoot burst images, the fixed exposure is cancelled.
- On:
- Fixes the exposure when you press the shutter button halfway down.
- Off:
- Does not fix the exposure when you press the shutter button halfway down. Use this mode when you want to adjust focus and exposure separately.
Note
-
When [Focus Mode] is set to [Continuous AF] and [AEL w/ shutter] is [Off] or [Auto], the aperture is fixed at the moment you press the shutter button halfway.
If the brightness changes drastically during continuous shooting, release your finger from the shutter button once, then press the shutter button halfway down again.
-
When [AEL toggle] is assigned to any key using [Custom Key Settings], operation using the key will be given priority over the [AEL w/ shutter] settings.
