q Changing the Metering ModeN
e Center-weighted average metering
The brightness is metered at the image center
and then averaged for the entire scene. This
metering mode is for advanced users.
With q (evaluative metering) and e (center-weighted average
metering), the metering range is almost the same as with viewfinder
shooting.
With w (partial metering) and r (spot metering), the metering
range slightly differs from viewfinder shooting. The approximate
metering ranges are as shown below:
* The figures show when [Grid 2 m] is set. The metering ranges are not
displayed on the LCD monitor.
Metering Range During Live View Shooting
Partial metering Spot metering
With q (evaluative metering) during viewfinder shooting, the exposure
setting will be locked when you press the shutter button halfway and focus is
achieved. With w (partial metering), r (spot metering), and e (center-
weighted average metering), exposure setting is set at the moment of
exposure. (The exposure setting is not locked when you press the shutter
button halfway.) During Live View shooting, the exposure setting is set at the
moment of exposure, regardless of the metering mode setting.
