Setting this function to center-weighted
average metering provides the photog-
rapher with a predictable metering pat-
tern for determining exposure. This is
useful for experienced photographers
who have over many years developed
an ability to accurately determine expo-
sure combining average metering and
exposure compensation.

ing sequence to "0 → – → +", which
is useful when shooting live sub-

AEB, as it prevents AEB mode
from being canceled every time the

the user to activate AEB mode
using an external setting operation,
eliminating the need to open the
camera's palm door.
