d button to make the settings.
e Digital ESP metering
The camera measures the light levels and calculates the light level differences in 49 separate areas
of the image. This mode is recommended for general use. Setting the AF synchronized function to
[ESP+AF] operates the metering area with the frame in focused in AF as the center.
4 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 the
background to affect the exposure value.
n 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
when there is very strong backlight.
nHI Spot metering - highlight control
When the overall background is bright, white areas of the image will come
out gray if you use the camera’s automatic exposure. Using this mode
enables the camera to shift to over-exposure, allowing accurate white
reproduction.
Metering area is the same as spot metering.
nSH Spot metering - shadow control
When the overall background is dark, black areas of the image will come out gray if you use the
camera’s automatic exposure. Using this mode enables the camera to shift to under-exposure,
allowing accurate black reproduction.
Metering area is the same as spot metering.
