MAXXUM9E 2/3/99 2:45 PM Page 40 EXPOSURE — M-Mode EXPOSURE — S-Mode S-mode Flash When the built-in flash is up or an attached accessory flash is on, it will fire each time a picture is taken. Flash exposure is controlled by the camera’s TTL automatic flash metering system. M-mode gives you full control of the exposure. The camera’s meter index displays how your settings compare to the exposure determined by the camera’s metering system.
MAXXUM9E 2/3/99 2:45 PM Page 42 EXPOSURE — M-Mode Metering in Manual Mode The meter index displays the EV difference between your settings and the ‘correct’ exposure determined by the camera. The 0 position (null point) represents the recommended exposure using the currently selected metering pattern (pp.45-47). • The EV scale is marked in 1/2 or 1/3EV increments depending on the current setting of the exposure compensation dial (p.51).
2/3/99 2:45 PM Page 44 METERING — Selectable Metering 14 Segment Honeycomb Pattern Metering Fourteen-Segment Honeycomb-Pattern Metering uses information from the autofocus system to set the metering pattern according to the position of the main subject. The light metered by each applicable segment is then evaluated to determine the degree of spot-lighting or backlighting present in your scene.
MAXXUM9E 2/3/99 2:45 PM Page 46 METERING — Selectable Metering Spot Metering Center Weighted Average Metering Spot metering uses only the center honeycomb segment to meter the image. • The spot-metering area indicates the metering area. Selecting Spot Metering Center-weighted average mode bases the exposure on an average of the readings from each of the honeycomb segments - with emphasis placed on the center of the image.
MAXXUM9E 2/3/99 2:45 PM Page 48 METERING — Automatic Exposure Lock (AEL) Press the AE-lock button to lock the exposure using the currently selected metering pattern without locking the focus. The exposure remains locked until the AE-lock button is released. 4.

MAXXUM9E 2/3/99 2:45 PM Page 58 DRIVE – Exposure Bracketing Exposure bracketing automatically exposes a series of frames with exposures above and below the metered exposure value. Bracket your exposures when shooting slides and other films with a low tolerance for exposure error. • This camera can expose a 3, 5, or 7 frame brackets in increments of 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, or 1.0 EV. • A larger bracketing increment is recommended when shooting negative film.
MAXXUM9E 2/3/99 2:45 PM Page 60 DRIVE — Multiple Exposure The multiple exposure function makes it possible to expose 2 or more images on the same frame. Metering Multiple Exposures The meter in your camera determines exposure (EV) based on the assumption that only one exposure will be made on each frame. When making multiple exposures, the EV for each additional exposure needs to be reduced or over exposure will result.
2/3/99 2:46 PM Page 62 FLASH — Four Segment Flash Metering Four segment flash metering uses data from the focus sensors to control the output of the built-in and/or attached accessory flashes. 4-Segment Flash Metering Conventional Flash FLASH All four segments are used to meter the flash, but weighting is heaviest on the segment containing the active focus sensor. Weighting varies with subject magnification and the distance between the subject and the background.
2/3/99 2:46 PM Page 64 FLASH – Slow Sync FLASH – Rear-Flash Sync In P and A-modes, slow-shutter sync sets a slower shutter speed to increase the background or ambient exposure in a flash picture. Flash output is automatically decreased to maintain correct subject exposure. Slow-shutter Sync Slow sync flash exposures can appear unnatural because the motion blur precedes the subject in the final image.
MAXXUM9E 2/3/99 2:46 PM Page 66 FLASH — High Speed Sync FLASH — Flash Compensation The maximum sync speed for this camera is 1/300. However, with the 5400HS accessory flash (sold separately) shutter speeds up to 1/12000 can be used. High-speed sync (HSS) allows faster shutter speeds when fill flash is used on moving subjects outdoors. Use flash compensation to increase or decrease the output of the built-in or an attached accessory flash up to +/–3 EV in 1/2EV increments.
MAXXUM9E 2/3/99 2:46 PM Page 68 FLASH – Flash Bracketing Use flash bracketing to expose 3, 5, or 7 frame flash exposure brackets in 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, or 1.0 EV increments.
