Ae Lock - Canon EOS Rebel Ti SERIES Instructions Manual

AE Lock

With the same AF point, you can obtain and lock the auto exposure set-
ting on one part of the picture and then recompose to focus a different
part of the picture. AE lock enables you to maintain the same exposure
setting even after recomposing the shot. This is effective for backlit sub-
jects. During AE lock, partial metering (→page 35) is used automatically.
