er...what?
Are we talking about spot metering, matrix metering, and center?
I always hear of them referred to as the individual metering type, not as light metering.
I know that SLRs have a light meter, and it's called that: a light meter.
I guess it makes sense, since it's all to due with exposure, but I have been doing so much inside photography (portraiture), that mine mainly stays on spot because spot metering works best when using the SB600 on camera.
And I slap it on matrix when I am snapping shots outside.
In other words, I have never gotten much into metering.
I'M STILL NEW, D@MMIT.
