Exposure metering options

Multi-Pattern (default)—evaluates the lighting conditions at various
points throughout the image to give an optimum picture exposure. Ideal for
general picture taking.

Center-Weighted—evaluates the brightness over a wide area with
emphasis on the center of the screen.

Center-Spot—similar to Center-weighted, except the metering is
concentrated on a smaller area of the subject centered in the viewfinder. Ideal
when you need an exact exposure of a specific area in the picture. A graphic
for Center-spot appears on the screen.

Selectable Zone—creates an exposure-metering setting from 1 of 25
possible screen locations. If used with Selectable Focus Zone (see table on

page 53

) they track together. Use

graphic to the desired zone.
