center focusing point will be activated automatically and evaluative
metering will be used. The basic procedure is the same as for “Depth-of-

The metering mode is set with the metering mode lever. When partial metering is set and
Custom Function C08 is set to 1, partial metering will be linked to the eye-selected focusing
point. See page 81.
