modes.

Multiple:
This is the method in which the 
camera measures the most suitable 
exposure by judging the allocation of 
brightness on the whole screen 
automatically. Usually, we 
recommend using this method.

Centre weighted:
This is the method used to focus on 
the subject on the centre of the 
screen and measure the whole 
screen evenly.

Spot:
This is the method to measure the 
subject in the spot metering target
