Metering]
The brightness is detected in different
sections of the frame. The exposure
is then based on the probable main
subject
Normal usage (high probability of
automatically correctly exposed
main subjects even with greater
brightness differences)
[Center
Weighted]
The metering sensitivity is
concentrated on the center while also
registering the rest of the frame
Use when subject is in the center,
or to deliberately base the exposure
on an off-center subject (provided,
subject is of medium brightness)

Only a small area in the center is
registered
Use to base the exposure on very
small subject parts (provided, these
parts are of medium brightness)
