METERING
Metering is a setting that determines your
subject's correct exposure. The camera will
compute the brightness levels, contrast, and
amount of bright to dark parts in the scene
automatically.
ICONS SETTINGS OPTIONS
Matrix Evaluated by splitting the scene into multiple zones,
(multi- then calculate each zone's exposure via the camera's
segment) computations. Ideal for general picture-taking.
Central Averages the exposure of the entire scene but
(Centre- gives extra weight to the centre. Use for backlit
weighted) subjects (default setting).
Spot Only the small area at the centre of the screen
determines the exposure. Ideal for highlighting
the main subject.
ISO
The ISO setting affects the camera's sensitivity
to light.
NOTE: An image taken at higher ISO speeds
may contain more "noise" or graininess than an
image taken at lower speeds.
