Multi (Multi-pattern):

Multi (Multi-pattern):
Multi-pattern metering divides the image into sections and measures the
light in each section for a balanced exposure reading. The camera
automatically determines shooting conditions according to the measured
lighting pattern, and makes exposure settings accordingly. This type of
metering provides error-free exposure settings for a wide range of shooting
conditions.
Center weighted (Center-weighted):

Center weighted (Center-weighted):
Center weighted (Center-weighted):
Center-weighted metering measures light concentrating on the center of
the focus area. Use this metering method when you want to exert some
control over exposure, without leaving settings totally up to the camera.
Spot (Spot):

Spot (Spot):
Spot (Spot):
Spot metering takes readings at a very small area. Use this metering method
when you want exposure to be set according to the brightness of a particular
subject, without it being affected by surrounding conditions.
