Steve McGarrett Posted December 17, 2017 Share #2 Â Posted December 17, 2017 In MF mode exposure is locked by default when you press the shutter button halfway... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve McGarrett Posted December 17, 2017 Share #4 Â Posted December 17, 2017 Why? Push in the joystick for zoom, push the shutter button halfway for AE lock... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve McGarrett Posted December 18, 2017 Share #6 Â Posted December 18, 2017 And why you don't focus first and then lock the exposure? I don't think there is another way (other than shoot in Manual), but maybe someone else have got an idea... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramarren Posted December 18, 2017 Share #7  Posted December 18, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) Traditional manual focus workflow for the past umpteen years:  1- Focus 2- Set exposure 3- Frame 4- Release shutter  If your going to make more than one exposure of the same subject and you want the exposures all to match, switch to manual exposure too.  AE-Lock what? and why?

robygio Posted December 18, 2017 Author Share #8 Â Posted December 18, 2017 ramarren ok but only for static subjects Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramarren Posted December 18, 2017 Share #9  Posted December 18, 2017 (edited) For all subjects, far as I'm concerned. I've always worked this way ... sports, portraits, racing, landscapes, whatever. Been doing it this way since 1966.  For some things, of course, I pre-focus and set the exposure long before I look at a particular subject to make a photo of. Depends on the environment and consistency of the light, as well as the consistency of my distance to subject. Edited December 18, 2017 by ramarren Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
