Setting Exposure Metering
To ensure proper exposure, your camera features three metering systems for
measuring the amount of light entering the camera lens: Multi-Pattern, Center-
Weighted, and Center Spot metering.
1 Turn the Mode dial to Capture and press Menu.
2 Highlight the Exposure Metering menu , then press Select.
3 Highlight the Exposure Metering setting you
want to use.
MULTI-PATTERN (default)—evaluates
the lighting conditions in the entire scene to
give an even picture exposure. Ideal for
general picture taking.
CENTER-WEIGHTED—evaluates the
lighting conditions of the subject centered
in the viewfinder. Ideal for backlit subjects.
CENTER SPOT—similar to Center-
Weighted, except the metering is
concentrated on a smaller area of the
subject centered in the viewfinder. Ideal
when an exact exposure of a specific area in
the picture is needed.
4 Press Select to accept the change and return to the Menu screen.
5 Press Menu to exit the Menu screen.
This setting remains until you change it unless Reset User Settings is set to
Yes (see page 44).
