Center-Weighted Metering

Center-Weighted Metering places special emphasis on

brightness within the 12mm-diameter circle in theo viewfinder and is thus useful for basing exposure on a

specific area of the scene.

NOTE: Minimum aperture with CPU Nikkor lens (except G-type)

Always set the aperture ring of a CPU Nikkor lens (except G-type) to its minimum (largest f-number). When the lens is not set to its minimum aperture setting, FE E blinks in the LCD panel and viewfinder, and the shutter locks.
