Selecting The Metering Area (Spot Metering) - Olympus C-150 Quick Start Manual

Selecting the metering area (Spot metering)

In a backlight situation, your subject may appear dark if the picture is taken
with the normal metering value (center-weighted average light metering). In
this case, by changing the metering area to the center of the viewfinder (spot
metering), a subject can be shot with optimal exposure regardless of the
background light.
OFF:
Meters the entire viewfinder to obtain the optimum exposure. (No indication
is displayed on the monitor.)
ON (spot metering):
Meters only the center of the viewfinder to obtain the appropriate exposure
for a subject there.
