Evaluative
Appropriate for standard shooting conditions,
including backlit scenes. The camera divides

position of the subject, the brightness, the direct
light, and the backlighting, and adjusts the settings
to the correct exposure for the main subject.
Center
Weighted Avg.
Averages the light metered from the entire frame,
but gives greater weight to the subject matter at
the center.
Spot
Use when there is a large difference in brightness
between the subject and the surroundings. Sets
the exposure to suit the subject at the center of the
composition.
