Evaluative Metering
The camera divides its screen into 256 and measures the brightness of the
scene by independently measuring each segment of the focusing screen
and analyzing the correct exposure for the main subject in any lighting
situation.
Center Weighted Average Metering
The camera will measure the average brightness of the entire scene with
additional emphasis on the center area. It will determine the most suitable
exposure with respect to lighting conditions.
