Metering
If you cannot obtain suitable exposure conditions, you can change the
metering method to take brighter pictures.
[Multi] :
Exposure will be calculated
based on an average of
the available light in the
image area. However, the
calculation will be biased
towards the centre of the
image area. This is suitable
for general use.
[Spot] :
Only the rectangular area in the centre of the LCD
monitor will be metered for light. This is suitable
when the subject in the centre is exposed correctly,
regardless of the back lighting.
[Center We ighted]: Exposure will be calculated based on an average of
the available light in the image area. However, the
calculation will be biased towards the centre of the
image area. This is suitable for taking a picture of
small object like a
fl
ower or insects.
Ä
If the subject is not the centre of the focus area, do not use the spot
metering as this may result in an exposure error. In this circum-
stance, it is better to use exposure compensation.
