Exposure metering TTL exposure metering using 2,016-pixel RGB sensor
Metering method • Matrix: 3D color matrix metering II (type G, E and D lenses); color matrix metering II (other
CPU lenses); color matrix metering available with non-CPU lenses if user provides lens data
• Center-weighted: Weight of 75% given to 12-mm circle in center of frame; diameter of circle
can be changed to 8, 15 or 20 mm, or weighting can be based on average of entire frame (non-
CPU lenses use 12-mm circle or average of entire frame) • Spot: Meters 4-mm circle (about 1.5%
of frame) centered on selected focus point (on center focus point when non-CPU lens is used)
Metering range • Matrix or center-weighted metering: 0 to 20 EV
(ISO 100, f/1.4 lens, 20°C/68°F)
• Spot metering: 2 to 20 EV
