Operation Manual

To use spot metering:
1. Press the dial function selector twice; will appear in the viewfinder.
2. Turn the rear dial one click-stop in either direction to select spot
metering.
3. Press the shutter release button partway down to enter your selection
and return to normal operating mode or wait 4 sec. for it to be entered
automatically.
4. Center the spot metering circle in the viewfinder over the area that you
want to meter.
5. Press and hold the AE lock button, recompose the scene, and press the
shutter release button all the way down to take the picture.
• If the area you want to meter is not the same distance from the camera
as where you want to focus, first lock focus on your subject. Then position
the spot circle over the area to be metered, press and hold the AE lock
button, recompose the scene as desired, and press the shutter-release
button all the way down.
• In manual exposure mode, spot metering will only provide a meter
reading of the area within the center circle. The camera will not
automatically set this reading.
To return to honeycomb-pattern metering, repeat the selection procedure
and turn the rear dial one click-stop in either direction.
• Pressing the program re-set button will return to AF-integrated
14-segment honeycomb multi-pattern metering, but will also return the
camera's other programmable functions to their default settings.
