•CENT (5 spot centerweighted average metering): Measures light mainly at the center and corrects according to the best image obtained. (See p37)

•MASK (48 multi-spot metering): Covers bright areas such as persons with mask patterns and treats light measurement output as irrelevant. (See p39)

•When using multi-spot evaluative metering, the background behind the target object will become very dark. If a target image in the center of the image is too bright while using the multi-spot evaluative metering mode, switch to the 5 spot centerweighted average metering mode.

•If DAY/NIGHT is set to “AUTO” and the images are in black & white mode, multi-spot evaluative metering will not operate.
