Metering

There are three ways of measuring the brightness of a subject.

Digital ESP metering: Meters the center of the subject and the surrounding

area separately.

Spot metering

: Exposure is determined by metering within the AF

target area. In this mode, a subject can be shot with
optimal exposure regardless of the background light.

P.102

Multi-metering

: Meters the brightness of the subject at up to 8 different

points to set the optimal exposure based on the
average brightness. This method is useful with a high
contrast subject.
