Metering System |
TTL
full-aperture exposure metering system; 1. D-/G-type Nikkor lenses support
3D-Color Matrix Metering II using the 1005-pixel RGB Sensor while other AF
Nikkor lenses with built-in CPUs support Matrix Metering (Non-CPU lenses
require manual input of lens data), 2. Center-Weighted Metering (75% of the
meter's sensitivity concentrated on the 8mm dia. circle) given to 6, 10 or
13mm dia. circle in center of frame, or weighting based on average of entire
frame, 3. Spot Metering (3mm dia. circle, approx. 2% of entire frame);
metering position can be linked to the focus area when using Nikkor lenses
with built-in CPU |
