The sensor meters the brightness in multiple zones. (default setting)
Even in backlit locations, this mode automatically determines
what level of brightness is in which portion and automatically
adjusts exposure.

Metering is weighted at the center of the sensor.

adjustment is performed even during backlit scenes.

when a subject is too small to obtain a correct exposure.
