Fixes the exposure after adjusting the focus automatically when you press the shutter button halfway down when [Focus
Mode] is set to [Single-shot AF]. When [Focus Mode] is set to [Automatic AF], and the product determines that the
subject is moving, or you shoot burst images, the fixed exposure is cancelled.
On:
Fixes the exposure when you press the shutter button halfway down.
Off:
Does not fix the exposure when you press the shutter button halfway down. Use this mode when you want to adjust
focus and exposure separately.
The product keeps adjusting the exposure while shooting in [Cont. Shooting] mode.
Note
Operation using the AEL button is prioritized over the [ AEL w/ shutter] settings.
