q Evaluative metering
General-purpose metering mode suited even for
backlit subjects. The camera adjusts the exposure
automatically to suit the scene.
w Partial metering
Effective where there are much brighter lights around
the subject due to backlight, etc. The gray area in the
left gure is approximately where the brightness is
metered to obtain the standard exposure.
r Spot metering
Effective when metering a specic part of the subject or
scene. The gray area in the left gure is approximately
where the brightness is metered to obtain the standard
