As long as you do not aim the Partial metering area at any subject that does not reflect back readings in 18 per cent gray scale, there won't be any problems getting the exposure right each time you use this selective light meter option of your EOS camera.

With practice, you would eventually find that getting wrong exposures in your pictures will soon be a thing of the past once you have understood the techniques of using the EOS cameras' Evaluative, Partial, Spot or Multi-spot metering modes creatively.
