(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 (Centerweighted metering). (Spot) (Only for still image) 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. Spot metering cross hairs Positions on the subject • For details on the Exposure, see page 9. • When using spot metering or center-weighted metering, setting [Focus] to [Center AF] is recommended to focus on the metering position (page 55). • You can select the metering mode only when [Face Detection] is set to [Off]. 54
