METERING MEMORY LOCK
For composition reasons, it can be beneficial not to have the main
subject in the center of the picture.
In such cases, the metering memory lock function - in P, S and A
exposure modes, and with
AF 1-field and spot metering modes
- enables the main subject to be metered first and the relevant
settings retained until you have determined your final trimming and
take the picture. When set to factory settings, both locks are used
with the shutter release button. You can, however, divide the lock
functions between the shutter release button and the thumb
button, or carry out both with the thumb button.
