B Metered Area
In spot metering, exposure will be locked at the value metered in a 4-mm (~J
(0.16 in.) circle centered on the selected focus point. In center-weighted
metering, exposure will be locked at
the value metered in the center of
the viewfinder (the default area for center-weighted metering is an
12-mm circle in the center of the viewfinder).
B Adjusting Shutter Speed and Aperture
While exposure lock is in effect, the following settings can be changed
without altering the metered value for exposure:
