Aim the focusing point over the
shadow area and press the <
pel

button.
► This obtains the first spot meter
reading.
Aim the focusing point over a
midtone area and press the
<

button once. Then do the same
for a highlight area.
► Each time a spot meter reading is taken, the
spot meter readings taken so far are
averaged and the result (shutter speed and
aperture) is displayed below the viewfinder.
See the figure in “Multi-Spot Metering
Display” on the next page. On the exposure
compensation scale on the right of the
viewfinder, the exposure level indicator
moves around in real-time to indicate the
spot meter reading’s current exposure level.
The three spot meter readings are also
indicated on the scale with a fixed (non
moving) metering mark.
