Shooting Functions
The metering mode refers to the way in which a camera measures the
quantity of light.
The camera measures the amount of light in a scene, and in many of its
modes, uses the measurement to adjust various settings. For example,
if a subject looks darker than its actual color, the camera captures an
overexposed photo of it. If a subject looks lighter than its actual color,
the camera captures an underexposed photo of it.
The brightness and overall mood of the photo can also be affected by
how the camera measures the amount of light. Select an appropriate
setting for a shooting condition.

averaging the overall brightness of the scene. This mode is suitable for
general photos.
