Function
Center weighted average meter is best for normal outdoor and indoor
lighting conditions.
Spot meter is primarily for shooting from inside of a car or other dark
space looking out into a brighter outside setting. Spot meter adjusts the
exposure for the absolute center of the scene, for example the road
ahead instead of the interior of the car.
If you are wanting optimum exposure of the inside of the car, filming
mainly the driver for example, choose Cnt center weighted average to
expose for the inside of the car.
Function
saves photos and videos in a normal "right side up" orientation
saves photos and videos upside down so that they appear right side up
when you review on your computer or TV. The video camera and photo
icons will blink quickly on the LCD screen to reminding you that you are
saving photos and videos in upside down mode.
