What is the use of Sony's exposure setting guide?

The adjustment range on the exposure compensation dial is -3~+3, and the adjustment range in the menu can be -5~+5. The principle is the same. If the dial is set to 0, you can adjust the light in the menu.

2. Reset EV compensation

If the exposure compensation value has been set in the menu, the exposure compensation will be reset to zero when the machine is turned on. In addition, this function is useless when setting exposure compensation with turntable.

3.ISO settings

Setting the ISO value can directly press and hold the shortcut key setting of right dial on the right side of the screen.

ISO range setting: The ISO range of Sony A7C is 50-204800, and the commonly used sensitivity range is not recommended. For convenience of setting, the range can be set as the common range.

ISO automatic minimum speed: when the camera is in p and a position, you can set a minimum shutter speed, which can reduce the picture blur caused by insufficient shutter speed when taking pictures.

4. Measurement mode

There are five options, including multiple metering and spot metering. In many scenes, multiple metering is enough, and sometimes spot metering is used if the large light is more prominent than the scene.

5. Spot metering

This is a very practical function, which can be used when using spot metering, and you can choose the middle or focus linkage. However, it should be noted that linkage can only be carried out when the focus area is a free point or the touch focus is selected.

6. In the multiple metering, the surface is preferred.

You measure your face when you take a portrait. If the face is too dark, it will automatically improve the brightness of the whole picture, if the face is too bright, the opposite is true. If you want to adjust later, you can turn off this function.

7. shutter AEL

If you want to adjust the focus and metering separately, you can turn it off.

The above is a brief introduction to the settings of Sony A7C menu that affect screen exposure. I hope it will help you who are studying photography.
