Spot Meter readings with Exposure Compensations Spot meter aimed at plants, open-up one-third of compensation Spot meter at chrome plates, open-up two-third of compensation Spot meter aimed at shadow area, minus two-third of compensation Spot meter aimed at green door, open-up one-third of compensation Spot Meter readings with self-styled Multi-spot technique f/5.6 at black hotel building, f/11 at white tower, shot at f/8 setting f/3.5 at woman, f/5.6 at the cake, shot at f/4.5 setting f/11 at highlight area, f/4.5 at shadow, shot at f/8 setting f/2.8 at shadow area, f/8 at distant highlight area, red car was metered at f/5.0 and the final exposure setting was based on it Spot meter reading with self-styled Multi-spot technique is something I have learnt from my Canon T90 days: How the Multi-spot metering system works combined with my own knowledge of metering techniques. It is by using the single Spot meter of the EOS-1N to take multiple readings of a given scene and then calculating the combined values before choosing the optimum setting by applying exposure compensations or choosing a subject matter that gives the same reading as the calculated amount and clicking the shutter.
