Metering

If you cannot obtain suitable exposure conditions, you can change
the metering method to take brighter pictures.
[Multi] ( ) : Exposure will be
calculated based on
an average of the
available light in the
image area. However,
the calculation will be
biased towards the
centre of the image area. This is suitable for
general use.
[Spot] ( ) : Only the rectangular area in the centre of the
LCD monitor will be metered for light. This is
suitable when the subject in the centre is
exposed correctly, regardless of the back light-
ing.
[Center We ighted] ( ) : Exposure will be calculated based on an average
of the available light in the image area. However,
the calculation will be biased towards the centre of
the image area. This is suitable for taking a picture
of small object like a fl ower or insects.
If the subject is not the centre of the focus area, do not use the
spot metering as this may result in an exposure error. In this
circumstance, it is better to use exposure compensation.
