3 ! 5! Which Lens?! 1 Wide Angle! 2 Normal! 3 Telephoto! 6! 3!

4 Exposure Mode! The Digital Camera! Image! Quality! Saturation! Metering! White Balance! ISO! 7! Exposure Modes! " P! " Programmed Auto - Camera calculates shutter speed and aperture for best possible exposure,! " "Flexible program" selection of shutter speeds and apertures which would achieve the same exposure (P* is displayed in this mode), rolling to the right chooses higher shutter speed and larger apertures, rolling to the left chooses smaller apertures and slower shutter speeds, for example a shot in good light:! 8! 4!

6 11! 12! 6!

7 Exposure modes! 13! Exposure Modes! " A! " Aperture Priority - Aperture can be selected manually, the camera calculates the correct shutter speed based on the current metering mode.! " This allows you to control depth of field! 14! 7!

8 Exposure Modes! " S! " Shutter Priority - Shutter speed can be selected manually, the camera calculates the correct aperture based on the current metering mode! " Allows long or short exposures! 15! Exposure Modes! " M! " Manual - In manual mode you can select both shutter speed and aperture. A value display on the control panel will indicate how much the image would be under or over exposed with a particular exposure setting! 16! 8!

9 Other Modes! " Sports Mode -!!Automatic exposure with maximum shutter speed, largest aperture.! 300mm! 17! " Macro Mode -!!Maximize Depth of Field!!Small Aperture!!Long exposure times! Other Modes! 18! 9!

15 Metering! " Matrix (256-segment matrix metering)! " Spot (meters only a small central portion of the image as indicated on the LCD preview)! " Center-Weighted (meters the entire frame but weights 80% to the central quarter)! " Spot AF Area (spot meters only in the selected AF Area - works for manually or automatically selected AF areas).! 29! Metering Modes!! Spot/Partial!! Center-weighted!! Multi-zone/Matrix!! Metering characteristic$! $! $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$! $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$! Use this mode: when there're big differences in brightness (e.g. between foreground and background) : when you need precise metering when you main subject covers a large portion of your image (e.g. with peripheral shadows)... for general subjects without larger shadowed or extreme bright areas. Action photography. 30! 15!

16 Spot Metering Don't meter to the brightest spot of the scene - this would lead to underexposed results. Try to find a place which has to be exposed right but always think of the limitation of the metering system. Even spot or partial metering cover a substantial area of the picture (up to 9.5%). E.g. the partial metering in the big picture (slot canyon) above points to a very bright spot but it surely contains some of the shadowed areas - in 31! this special case it leads to a correct result. Center weighted scenes 32! 16!

17 Typical scenes for Matrix or Multi-zone Metering 33! What should you meter on?! 34! 17!

18 Gray Card Standard 18%! " Standard for metering is 18% reflectance! " Why! " Green grass! "Blue sky! " Palm is abut 36% reflecting! "Open up one stop! 35! 36! 18!

19 Best Shot Selector! " Enables or disables Best-Shot Selection mode. In this mode the camera shoots continuously as long as the shutter release button is held down (for a maximum of 10 images) then selects the sharpest image and saves this to the CF card! 37! Image Adjustment! " Enables in-camera post-processing filters which adjust the brightness and contrast of the image after it's taken but before it's written to the CF card.! " Auto - Camera automatically chooses an image adjustment! " More / Less Contrast - adjust contrast! " Lighten / Darken Image - adjust brightness! 38! 19!

20 Saturation! " The ability to control the overall saturation of colors in the final image.! " Maximum - produces strong, saturated colors,! " Normal - standard colors! " Moderate - less saturated colors! " Minimum - relatively pale, under saturated colors! " B&W - black and white (no special channel mixing, just grayscale)! 39! Saturation! Normal! +1! -1! -2! 40! 20!

24 Bracketing! 47! " AE Lock allows you to lock the exposure and white balance to the first of a sequence of shots (useful for shooting panoramas).! " EXP +/- contains the same setting / value as the exposure compensation available from the exposure compensation button on the body.! 48! 24!
