Description
Multi None
Multi-pattern metering divides the image into
sections and measures the light in each section for
a balanced exposure reading. This type of
metering provides error-free exposure settings for
a wide range of shooting conditions.
Center
Weighted
Center weighted metering concentrates on the
center of the focus area to measure light. This type
of metering is best when you want some level of
control over contrast.
Spot
Spot metering takes readings at a very small area.
Use this metering method when you want
exposure to be set according to the brightness of a
particular subject, without being affected by
surrounding conditions.
