EXPOSURE – 14 Segment Metering
Fourteen-Segment Honeycomb-Pattern Metering uses information
from the autofocus system to set the metering pattern according to
the position of the main subject. The light metered by each
applicable segment is then evaluated to determine the degree of
spot-lighting or backlighting present in your scene. The focus-area
indicator displays the sensor being used when the shutter release
button is pressed partway down.
Fourteen-Segment Honeycomb-Pattern Metering is the camera’s
standard metering mode and is appropriate for most photographic
situations.
