The OM-4T enables aperture-preferred automatic exposure o n TTL direct light metering (center-weighted, averaged light metering). This mode can be used for most of the subjects under no rma l conditions — when shooting with th e su n behind you, wh en the subject contrast i s n o t to o strong, and so forth.
T T L Direct Light Metering Aperture-preferred automatic exposure allows you to ta ke pictures b y utilizing the lens depth o f field effect ( b lu r re d background, f o r example). P . 95 Set the mode selector lever to the "AUTO" position.
