Automatic exposure control

SWPP Photographic Glossary

A camera system that automatically sets the correct exposure by using a photoelectric sensor (light meter) to measure the light falling on the scene. The sensor converts light into an electrical signal, which then controls the aperture, shutter speed, or both, without the photographer needing to adjust settings manually. This ensures properly exposed images in varying lighting conditions and is a key feature in modern cameras for ease of use and consistency.
