C[METERING MODE]

For details on [REC] mode menu settings, refer to P21.

Type of optical measurement to measure brightness can be changed.

Applicable modes:

[C]: Multiple

This is the method in which the camera measures the most suitable exposure by judging the allocation of brightness on the whole screen automatically. Usually, we recommend using this method.

[ ]: Center weighted

This is the method used to focus on the subject on the center of the screen and measure the whole screen evenly.

[Ù]: Spot

This is the method to measure the subject in the spot metering target A.

Note

•When [C] is selected and [AF MODE] is set to [š], the camera will adjust the exposure to suit the person’s face.
