EXPOSURE CONTROL
By default, your camera uses the entire image to determine the
appropriate exposure level. However, Exposure Control lets you select an
area that you want the camera to prioritize when determining exposure.
This setting is particularly useful in shots where an important region might
otherwise be over- or underexposed.
When you change this setting, the touch display immediately shows you
the effect on your image. If you change recording options, the camera
returns to using the entire scene to determine the correct level of
exposure.
Using Exposure Control with Auto Exposure
With this option, the camera always bases exposure on the area of the
touch display that you select, regardless of what is in that area.
Suppose your camera is mounted on your dashboard. You might want to
select the upper part of the touch display so that the exposure is based
on the scene outside of the windshield and not on the dashboard (which
might cause the scene outside to be overexposed).
1. Press the touch display until a square outline shrinks to the middle of
the screen.
2. Drag the square to the area that you want to use to set the exposure
level. (You can also tap that area instead of dragging the square.)
3. Tap [ ] in the lower right corner.
