Center Weighted Center weighted metering concentrates on the center of the focus area to measure light. Use this metering method when you want to exert some control over exposure, without leaving settings totally up to the camera. Spot Spot metering takes readings at a very small area. Use this metering method when you want exposure to be set according to the brightness of a particular subject, without being affected by surrounding conditions. IMPORTANT! • The metering mode will change to "Center Weighted" automatically if you change the EV shift value (page 131) to anything other than 0.0 while "Multi" is selected. The metering mode will change back to "Center Weighted" when the EV shift value is changed back to 0.0. • When "Multi" is selected as the metering mode, the icon will not be displayed on the monitor screen when you return to the REC mode information display (page 270). NOTE • You can use the key customization feature to configure the [W] and [X] buttons so they control the metering mode setting (page 145). 137 ADVANCED SETTINGS
