Spot
: The camera calculates the amount of light in the centre. When you take a photo
in conditions where there is a strong backlight behind a subject, the camera adjusts the
exposure to shoot a subject correctly.
•
Centre-weighted
: The camera calculates a broader area than the camera does in spot
mode. It sums up the amount of light in the centre portion of the shot (60–80 %) and that
of the rest of the shot (20–40 %).
Drive mode
Use this option to set the shooting method. Continuous shots are recommended for shooting
