Multi (Multi Metering)
Multi-pattern metering divides the image into
sections and measures the light in each
section for a balanced exposure reading. The
camera automatically determines shooting
conditions according to the measured lighting pattern, and
makes exposure settings accordingly. 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. Use
this metering method when you want to exert
some control over exposure, without leaving
settings totally up to the camera.
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.
