Selecting the metering area (Spot metering)
In a backlight situation, your subject may appear dark if the picture is taken
with the normal metering value (Digital ESP metering). In this case, by
changing the metering area to the center of the viewfinder (Spot metering), a
subject can be shot with optimal exposure regardless of the background light.
