Option Description
L
[Matrix
metering]
The camera meters a wide area of the frame and sets
exposure according to tone distribution, color,
composition, and distance for results close to those seen
by the naked eye.
M
[Center-
weighted
metering]
･ The camera assigns the greatest weight to the center
of the frame. It can be used with subjects that
dominate the composition, for example.
･ Center-weighted metering is also recommended
when using lters with an exposure factor (lter
factor) over 1×.
･ The size of the area assigned the greatest weight can
be selected using Custom Setting b2 [Center-
weighted area].
N
[Spot
metering]
･ The camera meters a circle with a diameter of 3.5 mm/
0.14 in. (equivalent to approximately 2.5% of the
frame). This ensures that the subject will be correctly
exposed even when the background is much brighter
or darker.
･ The metered area is centered on the current focus
point. If AF-area mode (0102) is set to [Auto-area
AF], [Auto-area AF (people)], or [Auto-area AF
(animals)], the camera will instead meter the center
focus point.
t
[Highlight-
weighted
metering]
The camera assigns the greatest weight to highlights.
Use this option to reduce loss of detail in highlights, for
example when photographing spotlit performers on
stage.
