Digital ESP metering

During live view, the camera measures the light levels and calculates the light level differences in
324 separate areas of the image (49 areas when shooting with the view finder). This mode is
recommended for general use.
Setting the AF synchronized function to [ESP+AF] enables metering centered around the AF target
that is in focus with AF. It is available when shooting using the view finder (phase difference AF).
