Multi (Multi pattern)
Multi (Multi pattern) metering divides the
image into sections and measures the
light in each section for a balanced
exposure reading. The camera
automatically determines shooting
conditions according to the measured
lighting pattern, and makes exposure
settings accordingly. This type of
metering provides error-free exposure
settings for a wide range of shooting
conditions.
Center Weighted
Center weighted metering measures
light concentrating on the center of the
focus area. 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 it being
affected by surrounding conditions.
IMPORTANT!
• When “Multi” is selected as the metering mode,
certain procedures cause the metering mode setting
to change automatically as described below.
• Changing the exposure compensation setting (page
82) to a value other than 0.0 changes the metering
mode setting to “Center Weighted.” The metering
mode changes back to “Multi” when you return the
exposure compensation setting to 0.0.
• When “Multi” is selected, the icon is not displayed
when you return to the REC mode information
display (page 26).
