73 Advanced Operations 3 Aper ture-Prior ity AE/Checking the Depth of Field Checking the Depth of Field Y ou can press the Depth-of-Field Preview b utton to close the aperture to the current aperture setting, and then verify the range of f ocus in the viewfinder.
74 Manual Exposure In this mode you set the shutter speed and aperture v alue y ourself . The camera mak es no settings automatically . Y ou can determine the correct combination of shutter speed and aperture value by checking the exposure level displayed in the camera.
75 Advanced Operations 3 5 Determine the exposure. ● Set the shutter speed or aperture value manually . ● If the exposure level indicator < > is flashing at the < > or < > position, the exposure is over- or under-exposed by more than two stops.
76 A utomatic Depth-of-Field AE When taking pictures of large groups or landscapes , the EOS D60 can automatically achiev e a shar p focus o ver a wide depth of field. All the subjects covered b y the AF points, from those close to the camera to those f ar aw a y from the camera, can be taken clearly .
77 Advanced Operations 3 Setting Exposure Compensation Exposure compensation is used to alter the camera’ s standard exposure setting to mak e the picture brighter (increased exposure) or darker (decreased e xposure). Exposure compensation can be set up to +/– 2 stops, in 1/2-stop increments.
78 A utoe xposure Brac keting When using autoexposure brack eting, the camera automatically changes the exposure lev el within the set range (up to +/– 2 stops in 1/2-stop increments) for three successive frames. This is called AEB (Auto Exposure Brack eting).
79 Advanced Operations 3 Autoe xposure Bracketing ● Neither flash nor bulb e xposures can be used in AEB mode. ● If you set mirror loc kup with C .Fn-3-1 and then use AEB, single-frame shooting takes eff ect ev en if the drive mode is set to continuous shooting.
80 AE Loc k AE lock enab les you to loc k the exposure at a place other than the point of f ocus. After locking the e xposure, you can recompose the shot while maintaining the e xposure level. This feature is useful for backlit and spotlighted subjects.
