5. VERSATILE METERING MODES

The T90 is the world’s first camera to have all
three metering distribution patterns, i.e. center-
weighted average metering, partial metering,

and spot metering, built into one camera and
used by switching among the three patterns.

Multi-spot metering is also possible with a spe

cial button. In addition, the spot metering mode

has a memory function (approx. 30 secs) and

the AE lock mechanism comes on in both the

partial and spot metering modes when the shut

ter button is pressed down halfway. Exposure

compensation includes two methods: the expo
sure compensation index, which increments by

1 /3-steps, and the H/S control by 1 /2-step incre

ments. H/S control helps reproduce black and

white faithfully.
