AE LOCK<br />
The exposure obtained with AE area selection or a prescan can be applied to other images. This<br />
function is useful when scanning a series of high and low-key images that have consistent exposures.<br />
Also, when scanning a bracket series on negative film, by locking the exposure on one frame,<br />
the prescans of the other frames will show the exposure difference in the bracketed series.<br />
1 After making a prescan or setting the<br />
exposure of the reference image with<br />
the AE-area-selection function, click the<br />
AE lock button .<br />
• The scanners exposure now is fixed.<br />
• The normal prescan exposure can be locked without<br />
using the AE-area-selection function.<br />
2 Select another image and click the<br />
prescan button to view the<br />
result with the set exposure.<br />
• To cancel the AE lock, click the AE lock button<br />
again, or change the film type.<br />
• The prescan and final scan will be made with the locked exposure settings until the AE lock<br />
is cancelled, or the scanner is reinitialized.<br />
POINT AF (AUTOFOCUS)<br />
The <strong>DiMAGE</strong> <strong>Scan</strong> <strong>Elite</strong> <strong>II</strong>’s autofocus system uses the CCD sensor to focus the scanner. When the<br />
autofocus-at-scan option is selected in the preferences box, the autofocus system uses the centre<br />
of the image to determine the focus. This normally results in an excellent scan when the film plane<br />
is flat. However, if the film is warped or curled, the scanner can be focused using the point AF or<br />
manual focus functions.<br />
CAUTION<br />
For best results when using point AF or manual focus, select an area within the image with contrast<br />
or detail. The point AF and manual focus functions cannot focus on a smooth, flat image<br />
area such as a cloudless or overcast sky.<br />
1 Click the point-AF button .<br />
• The mouse pointer will change to the point-AF<br />
icon.<br />
• Click the point-AF button again to cancel the<br />
function.<br />
2 Click on the area of image to be<br />
used for focus.<br />
• Autofocus will begin. The newly focused prescan<br />
will be displayed.<br />
