Assignment # - Metering
I can set and see the differences between the metering mode settings.
Camera - Mode M
Photos - 24 images
Written Reflection - 1
24 total images and 1 written reflection due
Metering Mode determines which part of the frame the camera analyzes to calculate the proper exposure. Understanding Metering Modes. (Change meter press Q to open window scroll to metering and change to the correct mode.)
Four Metering Modes:
Camera - Mode M
Photos - 24 images
Written Reflection - 1
24 total images and 1 written reflection due
Metering Mode determines which part of the frame the camera analyzes to calculate the proper exposure. Understanding Metering Modes. (Change meter press Q to open window scroll to metering and change to the correct mode.)
Four Metering Modes:
- Evaluative metering: The camera analyzes the entire frame and then selects exposure settings designed to produce a balanced exposure.
- Partial metering: The camera bases exposure only on the light that falls in the center 9 percent of the frame.
- Spot metering (T3i only): This mode works like Partial metering but uses a smaller region of the frame to calculate exposure. For Spot metering, exposure is based on just the center 4 percent of the frame.
- Center-Weighted Average metering: The camera bases exposure on the entire frame but puts extra emphasis, or weight, on the center
In most cases, Evaluative metering does a good job of calculating exposure. But it can get thrown off when a dark subject is set against a bright background or vice versa.
