AE MODE
Set the light metering method, i.e. how light metering is carried out in the image subject,
in AE MODE. The light metering method cannot be independently selected if the
program is selected.
Choose from the following settings:
SPOT
Spot metering for subjects in which specifically only the movable measuring
field is taken into account for the measurement.
CENTER
Centrally accentuated integral measurement for subjects of which the
exposure is predominantly derived from the centre of the image.
MATRIX
Matrix metering for subjects in which the entire subject is analysed for
light metering.
HISTOGRAM Provides an analysis of the brightness distribution and avoids overexposed
areas in the image.
HIGHLIGHT
Variant of spot metering: the image subject is exposed in the area of the
measuring field such that it is shown as the brightest image value (peak
light). This is ideal if the section that is important to the image is very bright.
LOWLIGHT
Variant of spot metering: the image subject is exposed in the area of the
measuring field such that it is shown as the darkest image value (shadow).
This is ideal if the section that is important to the image is very dark.
Tip:
As a basic setting, centrally accentuated integral measurement produces very good
results in most cases.
