AE lock allows you to set the exposure for a specific 
subject in your shot. This technique is useful when 
brightness of your subject differs greatly from its 
surroundings.

A Set the exposure mode other than 

 (manual) 

(

➝p.70).

B Set the metering selector to 

 center-weighted or 

 

spot metering.
Matrix metering is not recommended since the effect of 
the AE lock cannot be effectively attained.

C Position the focus area over the subject you want 

correctly exposed, press and hold the shutter button 
down halfway and then press AE-L/AF-L.
Confirm that the in focus indicator (l) appears in the 
viewfinder.

• While AE lock is in effect, exposure will not be changed 

by changing the frame. Also, AE-L indicator will appear 
in the viewfinder.

• In spot metering, exposure will be locked at the value 

metered in a 3-mm (0.12 in.) circle centered on the 
selected focus area. In center-weighted metering, 
exposure will be locked at the value metered in an 8-
mm (0.31 in.) circle at the center of the viewfinder.

• Depending on the option selected, AE-L/AF-L locks 

both focus and exposure (the default setting), only 
focus, or only exposure. Options are available for 
keeping exposure locked until AE-L/AF-L is pressed a 
second time, the shutter is released, or exposure 
meters turn off.

D Keeping AE-L/AF-L pressed, recompose the 

photograph and shoot.

• While AE-L/AF-L is being pressed, the following 

operation can be performed:
- When exposure mode is 

: Flexible program (

➝p.71)

- When exposure mode is 

: Changing Shutter speed

- When exposure is 

: Changing Aperture

The new shutter speed and exposure values are 
displayed in the exposure display after the change.

• Rotating the metering selector to another setting does 

not change the metering system during AE Lock 
operation. Release the AE lock.
