EXPOSURE METERING AND CONTROL
Exposure Metering Methods
Your Leica X-U offers three exposure metering methods to adapt to
prevalent lighting and other conditions like your working methods or
artistic ideas:

Multi-Field Metering -
With this metering method, the camera automatically analyses the
brightness differences in the subject and, by comparing them with
programmed brightness distribution patterns, arrives at the likely
position of the main subject and the best exposure.
As a result, this method is particularly suitable for spontaneous,
uncomplicated, and yet reliable photography, even under difficult
conditions and therefore for the cameras automatic mode.
Center Weighted Metering -
This metering method allocates the highest weighting to the center of
the image field, but also records all other areas.
Particularly when used in conjunction with metering memory lock, it
allows the exposure to be selectively adjusted to specific sections of
the subject, while simultaneously taking into account the entire image
field.
Spot Metering -
This metering method is concentrated exclusively on a small area in
the center of the image. It allows exact measurement of small or tiny
details for precise exposure - preferably in conjunction with manual
settings.
In backlit pictures, the brighter surroundings may cause underexpo-
sure of the main subject. The much smaller metering field with spot
metering allows the camera to selectively evaluate these subject
details.
