Fujifilm FinePix S1 Manual Do Utilizador

In multi-pattern metering, the image is divided into 6 zones as shown in the
figure above. Each of the 6 zones is measured independently and that
information is then used to determine the optimum exposure. When a D-type
AF lens is mounted on the camera, 3D 6-zone multi-pattern metering is used.
In this mode, information on the maximum brightness in the image and the
differences in brightness is also included, along with information on the
distance from the lens to the subject, to give heightened metering precision.
Except where the exposure mode is set to Manual or AE lock (

P.70), multi-

pattern metering is used for all shots.

The FinePix S1 Pro normally uses multi-pattern exposure metering.
However, when the exposure mode is set to Manual or the AE lock
(

P.70) is used, exposure metering automatically switches to center-

weighted metering.

In center-weighted metering, emphasis is placed on the central area of the
viewfinder (a circle roughly 12 mm in diameter) when the exposure is
measured to determine the exposure setting. Consequently, this mode is best
for shots where you want the area inside that 12 mm circle to be the exposure
reference. When the exposure mode is set to Manual (

P.64) or AE lock

(

P.70) is used, metering is automatically switched to this mode.
