 Spot Metering
The brightness is measured only within 
a limited area at the center of the 
viewfinder. You can use this in 
when the subject is extremely small and 
the correct exposure is difficult to obtain.
Center-weighted metering mode is automatically set even if you select multi-
segment metering mode when using a lens other than a DA, DA L, D FA, FA J, 
FA, F or A lens, or when the lens aperture ring is set to a position other than 
s
(Auto). (Can only be used if [27. Using Aperture Ring] (p.299) in the 
[A Custom Setting 4] menu is set to [Permitted].)
Linking AE to AF Point during Multi-segment Metering
In [6. Link AE to AF Point] of the [A Custom Setting 1] menu, you can 
link the exposure and AF point in the focusing area during multi-
segment metering.

Off Exposure is set separately from the AF point. (default setting)

Setting the Meter Operating Time
You can set the exposure metering time to [10 sec.] (default setting), 
[3 sec.] or [30 sec.] in [4. Meter Operating Time] of the [A Custom 
Setting 1] menu.
