Camera: Shooting options and settings89ExamplesAuto WB DaylightCloudy TungstenMeteringThe metering mode refers to the method the camera measures the quantity of light. The camera measures the amount of light in a scene, and in many of its modes, uses the measurement to adjust various settings. For example, if a subject looks darker than its actual colour, the camera takes an overexposed photo of it. If a subject looks lighter than its actual colour, the camera takes an underexposed photo of it.In expert mode, tap ĺ ĺ Metering, and then select an option.rMulti: The camera calculates the amount of light in multiple areas. When light is sufficient or insufficient, the camera adjusts the exposure by averaging the overall brightness of the scene. This mode is suitable for general photos.

Camera: Shooting options and settings90rSpot: The camera calculates the amount of light in the centre. When you take a photo in conditions where there is a strong backlight behind a subject, the camera adjusts the exposure to shoot a subject correctly.rCentre-weighted: The camera calculates a broader area than the camera does in spot mode. It sums up the amount of light in the centre portion of the shot (60–80 %) and that of the rest of the shot (20–40 %).Drive modeUse this option to set the shooting method. Continuous shots are recommended for shooting the rapid motion of fast moving subjects, such as racing cars.In expert mode, tap ĺ ĺ Drive mode, and select an option.rSingle shot: Use this to take a single photo.rContinuous shot: Use this to take a series of photos of moving subjects.rAE BKT: Use the auto exposure bracketing option to take three consecutive photos with different exposure values (one a step lighter, the original, and one a step darker). Use a tripod to prevent blurry photos.rSaving photos may take longer depending on the memory card’s capacity and performance when taking photos continuously.rUsing a tripod is recommended when taking photos continuously.
