Description
Description
v
(spot)
The camera meters lighting conditions in an area at the
center of the frame equivalent to 2% of the total. Rec-
ommended with backlit subjects and in other cases in
which the background is much brighter or darker than
the main subject.
p
(center-
weighted)
The camera meters the entire frame but assigns the
greatest weight to the area at the center.
o
(multi)
The camera instantly determines exposure based on an
analysis of composition, color, and brightness distribu-
tion. Recommended in most situations.
w
(average)
Exposure is set to the average for the entire frame. Pro-
vides consistent exposure across multiple shots with the
same lighting, and is particularly eff ective for landscapes
and portraits of subjects dressed in black or white.
