Digital ESP metering ESP
The camera meters and calculates the light levels or light
level differences in the center and other areas of the
image separately. Recommended for shooting under
conditions where there is high contrast between the center
of the screen and the area around it, such as when
shooting backlit subjects or under excessively bright light.
Center weighted averaging metering
This metering mode provides the average metering
between the subject and the background lighting, placing
more weight on the subject at the center. Use this mode
when you do not want the light level of background to
affect the exposure value.
Spot metering
The camera meters a very small area around the center of
the subject, defined by the spot metering area mark in the
viewfinder. Use this mode for intensively backlit subjects,
etc.
