Multiple Field Metering - Leica R9 Bedienungsanleitung

Multiple field metering

This metering method is based on the recording
of 6 metered values, from the 5 fields in the mul-
tiple field metering cell and the selective meter-
ing cell field.
Common difficult lighting conditions and con-
trasts, such as reflections, backlighting, large
portions of sky in landscape photographs etc.
are automatically analysed and the brightness
distribution pattern is assigned to stored typical
subjects. The microprocessor then determines
the exposure.
Multiple field metering therefore represents an
extremely convenient, universal
method of exposure metering for the vast majori-
ty of all photographs, regardless of the level of
brightness and whether or not you want to positi-
on your main subject in the center of the image.
This makes it particularly suitable for quick
snapshots and for use in conjunction with auto-
matic program mode.
