EXPOSURE METERING SYSTEMS

The Nikon N6000 provides two types of exposure metering systems -

ing and Center-Weighted Metering.

Matrix Meter-

MATRIX METERING

This system is ideally suited for quick operation and for the
most dependable auto exposure control. It can also be used
for manual metering and flash exposure control operation with
any Nikon TTL Speedlight.

In Matrix Metering, the meter automatically provides the correct

exposure of the main subject in virtually any lighting situation,

without requiring manual exposure compensation. The Matrix

Metering sensor determines scene brightness by dividing the
scene into five areas, then analyzing each area for brightness
and scene contrast.

CENTER-WEIGHTED METERING

Choose Center-Weighted Metering when you want to base

exposure on either auto or manual exposure control for a cen
trally located subject. Selecting Center-Wejghted Metering
overrides Matrix Metering and concentrates 75% of the meter’s
sensitivity into the center of the viewfinder outlined by a

circle.
