[QUOTE="aroy, post: 421860, member: 16090"] For general shots with subject at or around the centre, Centre weighed gives the appropriate exposure. I use Matrix metering with flash or for landscape shots. Only when I want the exposure perfect on an object, do I use spot. One thing to note is that except Matrix metering, the other modes will leave areas brighter than the subject over exposed and dark areas under exposed. So if you want the bright areas properly exposed, use spot metering. The shadows can then be recovered in post if you shoot RAW. [/QUOTE]
