Metering mode
Description
[Center-weighted]
Meters the entire scene, with an
emphasis on the center. Correct
exposure is obtained for a subject
near the center of the scene, even
though the periphery may be slightly
darker or lighter. Use for subjects that
are in the center of the scene.
[Average]
Meters an average of the entire scene.
A uniform exposure is obtained even
when the scene has significant
differences in brightness.
Use for scenes where, for example,
cars are passing through or people
are entering and exiting.
[Spot]
Meters the center of the scene.
The correct exposure is obtained for a
subject near the center of the scene,
irrespective of the brightness of the
periphery.
Use if the subject is lit by a spotlight or
is backlit, where the exposure should
be adjusted to the center of the
scene.
