Metering mode
Description
Center-weighted
Meters the entire image, focusing on the
center of the image. A correct exposure is
obtained for a subject near the center of the
image, even though the periphery may be
slightly darker or lighter. Use for subjects
that are in the center of the image.
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.
