AE-L BUTTON
In Live View mode and in the automatic modes (A, S, P
and ), this button
(1)
is used for locking the exposure. In
Manual mode, it will lock the aperture and shutter speed
combination, allowing you to shift aperture and shutter speed
combination without changing the exposure with the scroll
wheels.
In Browse mode it is used to zoom out in the image (AF-D
zooms in).
In Menu mode it is used to exit one level up in the menu (AF-D
enters one level down).
Lock an EV setting in manual and automatic modes
When the button is pressed, the light metering facility is
locked to the EV setting at that moment. An AE-L icon appears
to the left of the aperture indication on the Touch Display and
ElectronicViewnderDisplaytoconrmthestatus.Pressthe
AE-L button again to unlock (a toggle function).
In the locked setting, the aperture and shutter speed become
interlocked. In this way, a new aperture/shutter combination
that still represents the same EV (exposure), can be rapidly
chosen. For example, if the shutter is set to 1/125s and the
aperture to f/8 and are locked together, you can access new
EV-equivalent combinations of, for example, 1/30s a f/16 or
1/500s at f/4 just by moving the front scroll wheel.
In practice this means that you can, for example, in auto mode
position the metering area (spot setting) over an area in the
subject that you determine to be equivalent to a mid-grey
and lock it with the AE-L button. You can then recompose the
picture with the metering zone positioned over an area much
brighter or darker while still retaining the original exposure
setting and choose a new combination of aperture and
shutter speed settings.
