Chapter 3 Setting Exposure Metering To ensure proper exposure, your camera features three metering systems for measuring the amount of light entering the camera lens: Multi-Pattern, CenterWeighted, and Center Spot metering. 1 Turn the Mode dial to Capture and press Menu. 2 Highlight the Exposure Metering menu , then press Select. 3 Highlight the Exposure Metering setting you want to use. MULTI-PATTERN (default)-evaluates the lighting conditions in the entire scene to give an even picture exposure. Ideal for general picture taking. CENTER-WEIGHTED-evaluates the lighting conditions of the subject centered in the viewfinder. Ideal for backlit subjects. CENTER SPOT-similar to CenterWeighted, except the metering is concentrated on a smaller area of the subject centered in the viewfinder. Ideal when an exact exposure of a specific area in the picture is needed. 4 Press Select to accept the change and return to the Menu screen. 5 Press Menu to exit the Menu screen. This setting remains until you change it unless Reset User Settings is set to Yes (see page 48). 25
