• Metering mode is set to [Multi] when you touch the screen to select a point to bring into focus, and when
shooting in Smile Shutter or in Easy Mode.

(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.
