Metering
There are three ways of measuring the brightness of a subject.
ESP
Meters the center of the subject and the surrounding area
separately.
n
Exposure is determined by metering within the AF target area.
In this mode, a subject can be shot with optimal exposure
regardless of the background light.
MULTI METERING
Meters the brightness of the subject at up to 8 different points
to set the optimal exposure based on the average brightness.
This method is useful with a high contrast subject.
