Selecting the Metering Method

Multi-
segment
The sensor meters the brightness in multiple zones. (default setting)
Even in backlit locations, this mode automatically determines
what level of brightness is in which portion and automatically
adjusts exposure.
M
Center-
weighted
Metering is weighted at the center of the sensor.
The sensitivity increases at the center and no automatic
adjustment is performed even during backlit scenes.
N
Spot
The brightness is measured only within a limited area at the center
of the sensor. You can use this in combination with AE Lock (p.100)
when a subject is too small to obtain a correct exposure.
You can also change the setting from the [A Rec. Mode 1] menu.
Exposure metering is performed immediately after the camera is turned on
or when the capture mode is changed. Set the length of meter operating time
in [3. Meter Operating Time] of the [A Custom Setting 1] menu. Select from
[10sec.] (default setting), [3sec.] or [30sec.].
In [5. Link AE and AF Point] of the [A Custom Setting 1] menu, you can link
the exposure and AF point in the focusing area when L is selected.
Off Exposure for multi-segment metering is determined regardless
of the AF point. (default setting)
