!
In "AUTO" mode, the light metering is set to Multi.
● AVERAGED
The advantage of this mode is that the
exposure tends not to change for
different compositions or subjects. This
mode is particularly effective for shots of
people wearing black or white clothing
and shots of scenery.
● SPOT
This mode is useful for subjects with
strongly contrasting light and dark areas
where you want to achieve the correct
exposure for a particular feature.
● MULTI
This mode uses automatic scene
recognition to analyze the subject and
obtain the optimum exposure in any
conditions. The "Multi" setting should
normally be used.
You can set the metering when the photography
mode is set to “4”.
Use this mode for scenes where the brightness
of the subject and background differ markedly so
that the Multi setting is unlikely to achieve the
desired result.
●
AVERAGE: Light metering where an average
value for the entire image is used.
●
SPOT : Light metering where the exposure
is optimized for the center of the
image.
●
MULTI : Light metering where the camera
automatically assesses the scene
and selects the optimum
exposure.
