• When the mode dial is set to (Intelligent Auto Adjustment), (Easy Shooting) and (Scene
Recognition), you cannot set the [Metering Mode].
• In Movie Mode, [Spot] cannot be selected.
• If you set the Metering Mode to other than [Multi], the Face Detection function cannot be used.
• When using spot metering or center-weighted metering, setting [Focus] to [Center AF] is recommended
to focus on the metering position.

(Multi) Divides into multiple regions and measures each region. The
camera determines a well-balanced exposure (Multi-pattern
metering).
(Center) Measures the center of the image, and determines the exposure
based on the brightness of the subject there (Center-weighted
metering).
(Spot) Measures only a part of the subject
(Spot metering). This function is useful
when the subject is backlit or when
there is strong contrast between the
subject and the background.
