		Exposure will be calculated based on an average
		of light in each image area divided into multiple
	[Multi]	regions. However, the calculation will be biased
		towards the centre of the image area. This is
		suitable for general use.
		Only the rectangular area in the centre of the LCD
	[Spot]	monitor will be metered for light. This is suitable
		when the subject in the centre is exposed correctly,
		regardless of the back lighting.
		Exposure will be calculated based on an average of
		the available light in the image area. However, the
	[Center]	calculation will be biased towards the centre of the
		image area. This is suitable for taking a picture of
		small objects like flowers or insects.

If the subject is not the centre of the focus area, do not use the spot metering as this may result in an exposure error. In this circumstance, it is better to use exposure compensation.
