The following table helps explain the settings in more detail. Icon Setting Description

Average Camera uses the entire scene region to measure and calculate exposure. Use this

setting when you want everything in the picture to be used equally when calculating exposure.

None Center- Camera uses the center of the scene region to Weighted measure and calculate exposure. This setting is good to use when the subject is in the center of the frame. Exposure will be based more on the

subject than on its surroundings. This is the default setting.

Spot Camera uses a small area in the center of the scene region to measure and calculate exposure. This can be useful in backlit scenes or when the subject is very dark or light compared to the rest of the scene. When using this setting, press the Shutter button halfway down to lock the exposure on the spot in the center, then recompose the scene as desired.

If the new setting is anything other than the default setting of Center-Weighted, the icon for the setting (in the table above) will appear at the top of the Live View screen.

The new setting remains in effect until it is changed again or until the camera is turned off.
