Metering Mode
The DV camera provides four metering modes:
Matrix metering: the picture area is divided into sections. The light
metering system will evaluate the best-suggested exposure values. The
indicator displays in the lower left corner of the LCD display.
Center-weighted metering: measures the entire image area but
calculates the exposure by emphasizing the center of the image. The
indicator is displayed in the lower left hand corner of the LCD display. This
mode is well applicable to portrait photography.
