EXPOSURE
SPOT METERING
The standard metering mode for this camera uses a fourteen segment honeycomb
pattern metering system to determine the correct exposure.
When the exposure needs to be set according to a very small part of the scene, spot
metering lets you use a single metering segment to determine correct exposure.
When selected, only the center segment of the honeycomb pattern is used to read
the brightness of the subject in the spot circle in the center of the viewfinder.
Move the area of the subject to
be exposed into the spot meter-
ing frame.
