M Center-weighted Metering
Metering is weighted at the center of the
viewfinder. Use this metering when you want
to compensate the exposure by experience,
instead of leaving it to the camera. The
illustration shows that sensitivity increases
as the pattern height increases (center).
This mode does not automatically
compensate for backlit scenes.
N Spot Metering
The brightness is measured only within a
limited area at the center of the viewfinder.
You can use this in combination with the AE
Lock (p.120) when the subject is extremely
small and the correct exposure is difficult to
obtain.
