Metering
There are four ways of measuring the brightness of a subject. Select the way
best suited to your purpose.
Digital ESP metering Meters the center of the subject and the surrounding
area separately.
Spot metering (5) Exposure is determined by metering within the
metering target area. In this mode, a subject can be
shot with optimal exposure regardless of the
background light. g P.81
Multi-metering (5MULTI)
Meters the brightness of the subject at up to 8 different
points to set the optimal exposure based on the
average brightness. This method is useful with a high
contrast subject. g P.83
Center-weighted metering (4)
Meters the brightness over a wide area with emphasis
on the center of the screen. This method is used when
you do not want to let the brightness of the surrounding
area affect the picture. g P.81
