Shooting Functions

Metering

The metering mode refers to the way in which a camera measures the quantity of light.

The camera measures the amount of light in a scene, and in many of its modes, uses the measurement to adjust various settings. For example, if a subject looks darker than its actual color, the camera takes an overexposed photo of it. If a subject looks lighter than its actual color, the camera takes an underexposed photo of it.

The brightness and overall mood of the photo can also be affected by how the camera measures the amount of light. Select an appropriate setting for a shooting condition.

To set a metering

 

 

In Shooting mode, press [f] ► Metering ► an option.

the exposure exists between a subject and a background.

Spot

The Spot mode calculates the amount of light in the center. When you take a photo in conditions where there is a strong backlight behind

a subject, the camera adjusts the exposure so as to shoot a subject correctly. For example, when you select the Multi mode in a strong backlight condition, the camera calculates that the overall amount of light is abundant, which results in a darker photo. The Spot mode can prevent this situation as it calculates the amount of light in a designated area.

Link AE to AF Point

When this function is turned on, the camera automatically sets an optimal exposure by calculating the brightness of the focus area. This function is only available when you select either Spot metering or Multi metering, and Selection AF.
